Overview:

The EBC S5 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a premium upgrade designed to deliver maximum braking performance for street-driven vehicles. This comprehensive kit combines EBC’s flagship Yellowstuff high-friction brake pads with GD series sport rotors, providing enhanced stopping power, improved heat dissipation, and superior durability.

Ideal for enthusiasts who demand aggressive braking from their trucks, muscle cars, or high-horsepower sport sedans and compacts, this kit offers a reliable and effective solution for upgrading your vehicle’s braking system without compromise.

By purchasing the kit, you save 15% compared to buying the components separately, making it a smart investment in both performance and value.

Key Features:

This kit is engineered to provide superior braking performance and longevity through advanced materials and design:

• Yellowstuff Brake Pads: EBC’s GG-rated high-friction compound delivers maximum brake effect for street use, ensuring confident stopping power under demanding conditions.
• Fully Shimmed, Chamfered, and Slotted Pads: These design features reduce noise, vibration, and harshness while improving pad bite and wear characteristics.
• Patented EBC Brake-In Coating: Facilitates rapid pad seating for consistent braking performance right from installation.
• GD Series Sport Rotors: Wide-aperture, spot-drilled, and vented rotors maximize cooling efficiency to reduce brake fade during spirited driving.
• Enhanced Debris Removal: Rotor design promotes fast evacuation of dust, gas, dirt, and debris to maintain clean braking surfaces and consistent pedal feel.
• Rear Rotor Specifications: Solid rotors with 5 bolt holes, 284mm diameter, 60mm height, 10mm thickness, and 72.1mm center hole diameter ensure precise fitment and durability.
• Caliper Lube Included: Helps maintain smooth caliper operation and prevents seizing for reliable brake function.

Construction & Design:

The EBC S5 kit pairs high-quality Yellowstuff pads with GD series rotors designed for optimal thermal management and durability. The rotors’ spot-drilled and vented construction allows air to flow freely, dissipating heat more effectively than standard rotors. This reduces the risk of brake fade during aggressive driving or heavy braking scenarios.

The pads feature chamfered edges and slots that help reduce noise and improve dust evacuation, while the patented brake-in coating ensures quick and consistent pad bedding. Together, these components create a balanced braking system that performs reliably on the street.

Installation & Fitment:

This kit is designed for straightforward installation on a wide range of vehicles, including trucks, muscle cars, and high-performance sport sedans and compacts. The rear rotor specifications and FMSI pad number D666 ensure compatibility with many common brake systems.

No special modifications, cutting, drilling, or tuning are required for installation, making it a convenient upgrade for enthusiasts seeking enhanced braking without complexity.

• Fits rear brake assemblies with 5 bolt holes and 284mm rotor diameter
• Uses factory mounting points and standard hardware
• Includes caliper lube for smooth operation
