EBC S8 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit

EBC is well-known for making performance brake components, and this S8 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a great example of their work. If you're looking to upgrade your 2013-2019 Ford Explorer's braking system, especially if you plan on hitting the track or just want a more robust setup for spirited driving, this kit is designed to give you a significant improvement over stock. It bundles together everything you need to get a serious brake job done right, saving you a bit of money compared to buying each piece separately.

This kit features EBC's G3000 slotted rotors. The slots are designed with wide apertures, which help to sweep away dust and gas that can build up between the pad and rotor surface. This keeps the braking surface cleaner, allowing for more consistent contact and improved stopping power, especially under heavy use. Paired with these rotors are EBC's Orange grade pads. These pads are formulated for longer life than their Bluestuff counterparts and are safe for street driving once properly bedded in, making them a versatile choice for drivers who might go from daily commuting straight to a track event. The kit also includes caliper lube to help ensure a smooth installation and proper operation of the brake components.

The rotors in this kit have a Geomet anti-rust coating to protect them from corrosion during storage and transit, and they fit directly onto your Ford Explorer without requiring any modifications to the stock setup. While these brakes are built for demanding use, it's important to remember that they are intended for track events, and regular monitoring is advised, especially if you're driving home on them after track use. This kit is a solid option for Explorer owners looking for a noticeable step up in braking performance and durability.
