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

The wide aperture slots on the EBC GD series rotors help to vent heat away from the braking surface. They also help to clear dust, gas, and debris, which keeps the pads in better contact with the rotor for more consistent stopping power.

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

No, this kit is designed as a direct fit for your vehicle and requires no changes over the stock setup. Standard brake installation tools should be sufficient, but always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details.

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 pad material to the rotor surface. This ensures you get optimal braking performance sooner after installation.

About this part

Product Details

EBC is well-known for making performance brake components, and their S5 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a popular choice for drivers looking to significantly improve their vehicle's stopping power. This kit is specifically put together for the rear of your 2005-2011 Cadillac STS, offering a direct fit that requires no modifications over your stock setup. If you're aiming for maximum braking performance on the street, this kit is designed to deliver.

Inside this kit, you'll find EBC's GG-rated Yellowstuff high-friction brake pads. These pads are fully shimmed, chamfered, and slotted, and they come with EBC's patented Brake-In coating to help seat them quickly for optimal performance right away. They're paired with EBC's GD series sport rotors, which are vented and feature wide-aperture slots. These slots are designed to help dissipate heat and quickly remove dust, gas, and debris from the rotor surface, ensuring cooler brakes and consistent stopping power, especially during spirited driving. The rotors also have a Geomet anti-rust coating to help them look good and last longer.

This kit is a smart way to upgrade your brakes, as it offers a cost saving compared to buying the pads, rotors, and included caliper lube separately. It's a comprehensive solution for enhancing your STS's braking capabilities for street use.
