What is the benefit of the wide aperture slots on the EBC GD rotors?

The wide aperture slots on the EBC GD rotors are designed to help dissipate heat more effectively. They also help to clear dust, gas, and debris from the pad surface, which can improve braking performance and reduce brake fade.

Do I need to do anything special to break in the Yellowstuff pads?

Yes, the Yellowstuff pads feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating. This coating helps to quickly seat the pads to the rotors, but it's still recommended to follow a proper bedding procedure for optimal performance and longevity. Refer to the included instructions for details.

Product Details

The EBC S5 kit for your 1999 Audi A8 features their GD series sport rotors, which have wide aperture slots. These slots are designed to help vent heat and remove dust, gas, and debris from the pad surface. This helps keep your brakes cooler and working more effectively, especially during spirited driving or when you need maximum stopping power. The rotors also come with a Geomet anti-rust coating to help protect them from corrosion.

Paired with these rotors are EBC's flagship Yellowstuff GG-rated brake pads. These pads offer high friction for strong braking performance right out of the box. They come fully shimmed, chamfered, and slotted, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating. This coating helps to quickly seat the pads to the rotors, reducing the break-in period and allowing you to get the most out of your new brake setup sooner. This kit is designed as a direct fit, meaning no modifications are needed over your stock setup.

This kit includes the front pads, front rotors, and caliper lube. It's a great option if you're looking for a significant upgrade in braking performance for your fast street sedan.
