What is the benefit of the EBC Brake-In coating on the Yellowstuff pads?

The patented Brake-In coating on the Yellowstuff pads helps to quickly seat the pad material to the rotor surface. This means you get improved braking performance right after installation, without a long break-in period.

How do the slotted rotors help my brakes?

The wide aperture slots on the EBC GD series rotors help to sweep away dust, gas, and debris that can build up between the pad and rotor. This keeps the braking surface cleaner, allowing for more consistent friction and cooler operating temperatures.

What is included in the EBC S5 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit?

This kit includes a full set of EBC Yellowstuff brake pads, EBC GD series slotted sport rotors, and caliper lube. It's designed to be a complete upgrade for your rear brakes.

About this part

Product Details

EBC is known for making well-built brake components, and this S5 kit for your 2003-2011 Saab 9-3 is a prime example. If you're looking to significantly improve your street braking performance, this kit is designed to give you that extra stopping power you need. It bundles together EBC's flagship Yellowstuff brake pads with their GD series sport rotors, ensuring a matched system for the best results.

The Yellowstuff pads are a high-friction compound, meaning they grab harder than stock pads, and they come fully shimmed and chamfered for quiet operation. They also feature EBC's patented Brake-In coating, which helps seat the pads to the rotors quickly for immediate performance improvement. Paired with the GD series vented rotors, which have wide apertures and slots, this kit is built to keep cool under pressure. The slots help clear out dust, gas, and debris, which maintains consistent braking performance and extends the life of both the pads and rotors. The rotors also get a Geomet anti-rust coating to protect them from corrosion.

This kit is a direct fit for your Saab 9-3, meaning no modifications are needed over the stock setup. It's a popular choice for fast street cars looking for a serious brake upgrade. You'll get the pads, rotors, and caliper lube all in one box, making the installation straightforward.
