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

The wide aperture slots on the EBC GD series rotors help to clear away brake dust, gas, and debris. This keeps the rotor surface cleaner and cooler, which leads to more consistent braking performance, especially during spirited driving.

Do I need any special tools or modifications to install this kit?

No, this kit is designed as a direct fit replacement for your stock rear brakes. No changes are required over the stock setup, and it includes caliper lube to assist with installation.

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 you get optimal braking performance sooner after installation.
