What is the benefit of the slotted rotors in this kit?

The wide aperture slots on the EBC GD series rotors help to dissipate heat more effectively. They also help to sweep away dust, gas, and debris from the pad surface, which can lead to more consistent braking performance, especially during hard stops.

How do I prepare the new pads and rotors for use?

The EBC Yellowstuff pads come with a patented Brake-in coating that helps seat them quickly. For optimal performance, it's recommended to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure, which typically involves a series of moderate stops to properly mate the pads to the rotors.

What is included in this EBC S5 brake kit?

This kit contains everything needed for a front brake upgrade: a pair of EBC Yellowstuff high-friction brake pads, a pair of EBC GD series slotted sport rotors, and caliper lubricant for installation.
