What is the main difference between EBC's Orange and Bluestuff brake pads?

EBC's Orange grade pads are designed for longer street driving life compared to their Bluestuff pads. While both can be used for track events, the Orange pads offer a more balanced performance for daily driving and occasional spirited use.

Do I need any special tools or parts for installation?

This kit is designed as a direct fit, meaning it replaces your stock components without requiring modifications. It includes caliper lube to assist with installation. However, always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific tool requirements or procedures.

What is the benefit of slotted rotors?

The wide aperture slots on these rotors help to vent hot gases and dust away from the pad surface. This keeps the braking surface cleaner and cooler, leading to more consistent and reliable stopping power, especially during heavy braking or track use.

Product Details

If you're planning a track day or just want a serious upgrade for your 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota or 2006-2009 Mitsubishi Raider, this EBC S8 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a solid choice. This kit bundles everything you need to give your braking system a significant boost, combining performance-oriented pads with specially designed rotors. It's a well-built package aimed at drivers who push their vehicles a bit harder, offering a noticeable improvement over stock components.

Inside this kit, you'll find EBC's Orange grade pads, which are designed for longer life compared to their Bluestuff pads, yet still provide safe street driving performance once properly bedded in. These pads are paired with G3000 slotted rotors. The slots on the rotors help to dissipate heat and gas, which means more consistent stopping power, especially during demanding use like track events. The rotors also feature a Geomet anti-rust coating to keep them looking good and protected from the elements, even when the vehicle isn't being driven regularly. This kit is a direct fit, meaning no modifications are needed over your stock setup, making installation straightforward.

When you buy this kit, you're getting a convenient package that saves you about 15% compared to purchasing the pads and rotors separately. It includes the pads, rotors, and even caliper lube to help ensure a smooth installation. While these pads are safe for street use after bedding, remember that their primary design is for performance driving. If you're heading straight from a track event home, keep an eye on them, as their lifespan is optimized for spirited driving conditions. This kit is a great way to get a comprehensive braking upgrade without the hassle of sourcing individual parts.
