What exactly is included in the EBC S5KF1279 kit?

This kit includes a full set of EBC Yellowstuff GG-rated front brake pads and a pair of EBC GD series vented sport rotors. It also comes with caliper lube to assist with the installation process.

How do the slotted and drilled rotors help my brakes?

The wide aperture slots and drilling on the 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 and help prevent rotor glazing.

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

The patented Brake-in coating on the Yellowstuff pads helps to speed up the process of mating the new pads to the rotors. This ensures that you get optimal braking performance more quickly after installation, reducing the break-in period.
