What is the benefit of slotted rotors in this kit?

The wide slots on the EBC GD rotors help to sweep away brake dust and hot gases. This keeps the pad surface cleaner and allows for more consistent braking performance, especially under heavy use like track driving.

Can I use these pads and rotors for daily driving?

Yes, the Bluestuff pads are designed to bite well from cold and are safe for street driving. They offer improved performance over stock pads even in normal driving conditions.

What should I be aware of when using this kit for track days?

Track use generates significantly more heat and wear. EBC recommends monitoring pad wear every 10 laps during track sessions, as pads can wear faster. Always check your brakes to ensure they are sufficient for the drive home.

Product Details

EBC is well-known for making performance brake components, and their S6 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a popular choice for drivers who want improved stopping power for both street and track use. This kit is specifically designed as a direct fit for your 2008-2009 Pontiac G8, meaning no modifications are needed over the stock setup. It’s a great way to get a significant upgrade without the hassle of sourcing individual parts.

What makes this kit stand out is the combination of EBC's Bluestuff brake pads and their GD series slotted rotors. The Bluestuff pads are formulated for ultra-high friction, meaning they bite hard. They’re designed to work effectively right from a cold start for safe street driving, but they can also handle the intense heat generated during track day sessions. The GD rotors feature wide slots, which help to clear away dust and gas buildup, keeping the pads in contact with a clean rotor surface for consistent braking performance. These rotors also come with a Geomet anti-rust coating to help protect them from corrosion during storage and initial use.

When you buy this S6 kit, you get the pads, the rotors, and even a packet of caliper lube, all bundled together. This kit is often purchased by drivers who plan to take their G8 to the track for spirited driving sessions. It's important to remember that track use puts much higher demands on your braking system. EBC recommends monitoring your pad wear every 10 laps during track events, as pads can wear faster under those conditions. Always ensure you have enough brake life left to safely drive your vehicle home after a track session.
