Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Do I need to remove the Thermic Black coating before installation?

No, the Thermic Black coating does not need to be removed before installation. It will wear off naturally in the pad swept area after the first few stops.

2. Can I use these rotors with upgraded rear pads?

It is recommended to upgrade the rear pads only if you have the same upgrade fitted to the front. This ensures balanced braking performance across all wheels.

3. What should I avoid when installing these rotors?

Avoid using brake cleaner or any other method to remove the Thermic Black coating, as this will void the warranty provided by EBC.
