USR Sloted Rotors - Ultra quiet sport slotted brake rotors.

Slotted rotors can significantly improve brake performance and longevity when used with a matching high friction pad set . Having sold hundreds of thousands of brake kits EBC Brakes feel confident their approach is as perfect as it gets.

We are of the opinion that slotted rotors have been “Over sold” by certain marketplace participants and our findings are that a slotted rotor will only give benefits if used with a pad that compensates for its reduced surface area. The benefits of degassing and promoting flat and smooth pad wear are a clear plus in favour of sport rotors but the trick is to opt for a matched set of brakes and not to just expect a slotted rotor to improve braking on its own. . When used with higher friction EBC Redstuff, Greenstuff or Yellowstuff brake pads these rotors WILL DELIVER better brakes.


100% ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BRAKES


EBC brakes contain no toxic chemicals or fibers and are one of the worlds leading brands in the protection of the environment we live in.

Discount Tire Co. specializes in wheels and tires only. At this time, there are no plans on installing or servicing brakes. Also, you can only purchase EBC brakes from us via mail order here at Discount Tire Direct.
