What is the EBC Brake-in coating on the Bluestuff pads?

The EBC Brake-in coating is a special surface treatment applied to the Bluestuff pads. It helps to speed up the initial bedding process, ensuring the pads mate properly with the rotor surface for optimal performance right from the start.

How do the dimpled and slotted features on the GD rotors help?

The dimples and slots on the GD rotors serve multiple purposes. They help to break up the boundary layer of gas and heat that can form between the pad and rotor, allowing for better contact and more consistent stopping power, especially under heavy braking.

Do I need to purchase any additional hardware for this kit?

This kit includes the EBC Bluestuff brake pads and EBC GD series brake rotors. While it contains the primary braking components, it's always a good idea to inspect your existing brake hardware, such as caliper bolts and brake lines, and replace them if they show signs of wear or damage.

About this part

Product Details

This EBC S6 kit is for the front brakes on your 2006 BMW 330Ci, 330i, or 330xi. It bundles together EBC's Bluestuff brake pads and their GD series performance rotors, offering a significant upgrade over stock components for both street driving and track days. The Bluestuff pads are known for their high friction capabilities, working effectively across a wide temperature range, from cold starts to high-heat track conditions. The GD rotors feature a dimpled and slotted design, which helps to dissipate heat and gases, leading to more consistent stopping power. Both the pads and rotors come with special coatings to protect them during shipping and initial use.

The Bluestuff pads in this kit are designed for ultra-high friction, making them a solid choice if you plan on pushing your BMW on the track. They also perform well in everyday driving, thanks to EBC's patented Brake-in coating, which helps seat the pads quickly and efficiently. The GD rotors are constructed from G3000 iron and treated with a Geomet anti-rust coating, which is a step up from standard coatings and helps prevent corrosion, especially around the edges and the hub area. This coating is designed to burn off during the initial bedding process, leaving you with a rotor that looks good and performs well. EBC also ensures these rotors are balanced and tested for run-out, meaning they should install smoothly and contribute to a vibration-free braking experience.

When you purchase this S6 kit, you're getting a matched set of pads and rotors that are designed to work together. This often results in improved braking performance and can also save you a bit compared to buying the components separately. The kit includes everything you need for the front axle, and the rotors are vented with a 330mm diameter, 73mm height, 24mm thickness, and a 79mm center hole diameter, specific to your 2006 BMW 3-Series application. Remember to follow the EBC Brake-in procedure for the Bluestuff pads to get the best performance and longevity out of this system.
