What is the main benefit of the USR slotted rotors in this kit?

The fine slots on the USR rotors help to dissipate heat and brake gases more effectively. This leads to more consistent braking performance, especially during hard stops, and also helps to reduce wind noise for a quieter ride.

How do the Yellowstuff pads differ from standard brake pads?

EBC Yellowstuff pads are a high-friction compound designed for maximum brake effect. They offer improved stopping power compared to standard pads and are suitable for both spirited street driving and track use.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes, this kit includes the front brake pads, front brake rotors, and caliper lube. It is designed as a direct replacement for your stock components, meaning no additional parts are typically needed for installation.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2018-2023 Acura RDX's braking system, this EBC S9 kit is a solid choice. It bundles together EBC's top-tier Yellowstuff GG-rated pads with their USR sport slotted rotors, giving you a significant upgrade over your stock setup. This combination is designed to handle both spirited street driving and track use, offering a noticeable improvement in stopping performance.

What sets this kit apart is the attention to detail in both the pads and rotors. The Yellowstuff pads are a high-friction compound, meaning they grab harder and provide more confidence when you need to slow down quickly. They come fully shimmed and chamfered, and feature EBC's patented Brake-In coating, which helps seat the pads to the rotors faster, reducing the break-in period and getting you to maximum performance sooner. The USR rotors are a fine-slotted design, which helps to dissipate heat and gases more effectively than a plain rotor. This not only improves braking consistency but also helps reduce wind noise, making for a more comfortable driving experience, especially on longer trips.

This kit is a direct fit for your RDX, meaning no modifications are needed to install it. You'll get everything you need to swap out your front brakes, including the pads, rotors, and even caliper lube to help with the installation. The rotors also feature a Geomet anti-rust coating to help them look good and resist corrosion, even in challenging weather conditions. While this kit is built for performance, please note that EBC does not offer a warranty for race use.
