The 380x36mm front and 370x24mm rear discs can be bolted directly on to the axles. The fully floating disc allows the outer cast-iron friction ring to expand with temperature, eliminating warping. The discs are also grooved to allow the pad to vent without drilled holes, while G3500-grade high-carbon cast iron is used for the friction rings, offering greater crack resistance and an increased ability to conduct and then dissipate heat. Yellowstuff and Bluestuff road-legal brake pads, and RP-1 and RP-X track/motorsport brake pads are also available. https://ebcbrakes.com/where-to-buy/ 52 AFTERMARKET OCTOBER 2023 PRODUCTS
