EBC S9 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit

With this EBC S9 kit, you're getting a matched set of front brake pads and rotors specifically for your 2016-2023 Mazda CX-9. This kit bundles EBC's Yellowstuff high-friction pads with their USR fine-slotted G3000 sport rotors, offering a significant upgrade over stock components for both street driving and occasional track use. The goal here is to give you a well-rounded braking performance that feels more responsive and consistent, especially when you push your CX-9 a bit harder.

The Yellowstuff pads are known for their high friction compound, which means they grab effectively. They also come with EBC's patented Brake-in coating, a special surface treatment that helps seat the pads to the rotors quickly and efficiently, reducing the break-in period and getting you to optimal performance faster. The USR rotors are made from G3000 iron and feature fine slots. These slots help to sweep away dust and gas that can build up between the pad and rotor surface, which can cause glazing and reduce braking effectiveness. EBC also applies a Geomet anti-rust coating to the rotors, which helps protect them from corrosion during storage and shipping, and it's designed to wear off quickly once you start braking. Each rotor is balanced and run-out tested to ensure smooth operation and prevent vibrations.

This kit is designed to save you about 10% compared to buying the pads and rotors separately, making it a smart way to get a complete front brake upgrade. You'll find that the combination offers a solid improvement in stopping power and feel, especially for a vehicle like the CX-9 that can carry a good amount of weight. Just remember to follow the proper bedding-in procedure for the pads and rotors to get the best and longest-lasting performance from this kit.
