EBC S4 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit

EBC is well-known for making performance brake components, and their S4 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a solid choice for your 1997-1998 Volkswagen Golf. If you're looking for an upgrade over your stock brakes, especially for spirited highway driving, this kit aims to give you better stopping power with significantly less dust than many performance pads. It’s designed to be a direct fit, meaning you won't need to make any modifications to your existing setup.

This kit bundles EBC's Redstuff brake pads with their USR fine-slotted sport rotors. The Redstuff pads are built with Aramid fiber and ceramic granules, and they come fully shimmed, slotted, and chamfered, featuring EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help them seat quickly after installation. The USR rotors are vented and feature a fine slot pattern that helps keep things quiet and cool, while also promoting flat and parallel pad wear. Both the rotors and pads are treated with a Geomet black anti-rust coating to protect them from the elements.

When you buy this kit, you're getting the pads, rotors, and caliper lube all in one package, which can save you a bit compared to buying them separately. It's a well-built option for anyone wanting a noticeable improvement in their braking performance without the common drawbacks of high-performance setups.
