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

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

Are the rotors coated to prevent rust?

Yes, the included rotors feature a Geomet anti-rust surface coating. This coating helps protect the rotors from corrosion and maintain their appearance over time.

What does it mean that the rotors are 'runout tested'?

Runout testing ensures that the rotor is perfectly flat and true. This is important for preventing brake judder or vibration, leading to smoother braking performance.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 1998-2001 Volkswagen Passat a fresh set of brakes, this EBC S20 kit is a solid option. It bundles everything you need for both the front and rear axles, so you can tackle the whole job at once. Replacing both front and rear brakes simultaneously makes a lot of sense because the rear brakes can account for up to 40% of your vehicle's stopping power, and it ensures everything is working in balance.

Inside this kit, you'll find EBC Ultimax pads, which are built with Aramid fiber for good daily driving performance. They come fully shimmed and chamfered, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help them bed in faster after installation. The rotors are direct fit OEM replacements, meaning they're made to install without any modifications. They also have a Geomet anti-rust surface coating to help keep them looking good and functioning well, and each rotor is balanced and tested for runout to ensure smooth operation.

This kit is designed for daily drivers and includes caliper lube to help with the installation process. Renewing your front and rear brakes together is a smart move for consistent stopping performance.
