Benefits of EBC GD Rotors

The EBC GD Rotors feature wider slots and blind-drilled dimples that help prevent cracks and keep your braking area clean by removing dirt and debris. The innovative design allows for better cooling, which reduces temperatures and prevents brake fade. Plus, the sleek Thermic Black finish not only looks great but also offers exceptional corrosion resistance.

Installation Notes

When installing the GD Rotors, there's no need to remove the Thermic Black coating. It will wear off in the pad-swept area after your first few stops. Just a heads-up: if you're upgrading your front brakes, make sure to do the same for the rear to maintain balanced performance. Using brake cleaner on the rotors is not recommended and could void your warranty.
