What is the benefit of the dimpled and slotted rotors?

The slots on the rotors help to sweep away brake dust and gases that can build up between the pad and rotor surface. This helps maintain consistent friction and prevents brake fade, especially during hard braking. The dimples also aid in heat dissipation.

How do I break in the new EBC Yellowstuff pads?

The Yellowstuff pads come with EBC's patented Brake-in coating. This coating helps to seat the pads to the rotors more quickly and efficiently. Follow the specific break-in procedure outlined by EBC, which typically involves a series of moderate stops from around 30-40 mph, allowing the brakes to cool between cycles.

What else might I need to install this brake kit?

While this kit includes the essential pads and rotors, it's always a good idea to inspect your brake hardware, such as caliper bolts and pins, during installation. You may also want to consider replacing your brake fluid if it's old, as fresh fluid can further enhance braking performance.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to significantly improve your vehicle's stopping power, especially if you've got a light truck, SUV, or a performance-oriented street car, the EBC S5 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a solid choice. This kit bundles together everything you need to upgrade your front brakes, combining high-performance pads with specially designed rotors to give you more confidence when you need to slow down in a hurry.

At the heart of this kit are the Yellowstuff brake pads, known for their high friction compound that offers excellent stopping power right out of the box. They also come with EBC's patented Brake-in coating, which helps seat the pads to the rotors quickly and efficiently, reducing the break-in period and getting you back on the road with improved braking sooner. The rotors themselves are EBC's GD series, which feature a dimpled and slotted design. The slots help to sweep away dust and gas that can build up between the pad and rotor, maintaining consistent contact and preventing fade, while the dimples help with heat dissipation. These rotors are also treated with a Geomet anti-rust coating, which not only keeps them looking good but also protects them from corrosion, especially important if your vehicle sees varied weather conditions. EBC tests each rotor for balance and run-out to ensure a smooth, vibration-free braking experience.

This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your front braking system, simplifying the installation process. The rotors measure 295mm in diameter and are vented, suitable for vehicles with a 5-bolt hub pattern. By purchasing this kit, you're also saving about 10% compared to buying the pads and rotors separately, making it a smart and economical way to get a significant brake upgrade.
