What is the benefit of the EBC Brake-in coating on the pads?

The patented EBC Brake-in coating helps to speed up the process of bedding in the new brake pads after installation. This means you can achieve optimal braking performance sooner after replacing your old pads and rotors.

What is the Geomet anti-rust coating on the rotors?

The Geomet coating is applied to the surface of the rotors to help protect them from rust and corrosion. This helps maintain their appearance and ensures consistent performance over time, especially in varied weather conditions.

Does this kit include everything needed for the brake job?

This kit includes the brake pads and rotors for both the front and rear axles, as well as caliper lube. It is designed as a direct replacement for your stock components.

Product Details

EBC Brakes is well-known for making solid braking components, and this S20 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a great example of their work for daily drivers. If you're looking to refresh the braking system on your 1996-1998 Volkswagen Passat, this kit covers both the front and rear axles, making it a convenient way to get everything you need in one package. It’s designed to be a direct fit, meaning no modifications are needed over your stock setup, which simplifies the installation process.

This kit features EBC's Ultimax daily driver pads, which are built with Aramid fiber for good performance and include a patented Brake-in coating to help them bed in faster after installation. The rotors are OEM-style replacements, featuring a Geomet anti-rust surface coating to help them look good and resist corrosion. They are also balanced and tested for runout to ensure smooth operation. Remember that your rear brakes handle a significant portion of your vehicle's stopping power, so replacing both front and rear components at the same time makes a lot of sense for balanced braking performance.

This kit also comes with caliper lube to help with the installation. By purchasing this kit, you save about 15% compared to buying the pads and rotors separately, making it a smart choice for maintaining your Passat's braking system.
