What is the benefit of the slots and holes on the EBC GD rotors?

The wide-aperture slots on the GD rotors help to break up the boundary layer of air and gas that forms between the pad and rotor, aiding in cooling. The drilling pattern also helps to dissipate heat and clear away dust, gas, and debris, which can improve braking consistency.

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

The patented Brake-in coating on the Yellowstuff pads is a surface treatment that helps to quickly and efficiently mate the pad material to the rotor surface. This process ensures optimal performance shortly after installation.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the front brake pads, front rotors, and caliper lube. It is recommended to inspect your existing caliper hardware and brake fluid before installation, as these are not included.
