EBC Front Slotted | Dimpled Rotors - Set of 2 Rotors (288x25mm) Mk4 1.8T | VR6

Part #: GD818

Overview

The EBC 3GD Series front rotors are high-performance, precision-machined brake components designed to enhance your vehicle’s braking response and durability. Crafted from premium-quality castings, these rotors feature a combination of slotted and dimpled surfaces that optimize heat dissipation and reduce brake fade under demanding driving conditions. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved braking performance, these rotors help maintain consistent pad contact, reduce dust and gas buildup, and resist stress cracks, ensuring reliable operation during spirited driving or heavy loads. Whether you’re upgrading for better stopping power or replacing worn-out rotors, these 288x25mm rotors are engineered to support your vehicle’s braking system with enhanced thermal management and wear characteristics. They are suitable for a range of applications, including street and light track use, providing a balance of performance and longevity.

Key Features

Designed with wide-aperture scraper slots and blind-drilled holes, these rotors facilitate superior airflow and heat expulsion, helping to keep brake temperatures low. The dimpling process further reduces stress concentrations, extending rotor life and maintaining flat, parallel pad contact for consistent braking. The precision-machined surface ensures a smooth, flat rotor face that promotes even pad wear and optimal braking feel. Constructed from high-quality castings, these rotors are built to withstand high thermal loads and resist cracking, making them a durable choice for performance-oriented driving.

Construction & Design

The rotors feature a combination of slotted and dimpled patterns, with carefully engineered drill holes and slots that improve heat dissipation and debris removal. The wide-aperture slots are designed to expel dirt, dust, and gases efficiently, supporting consistent brake pad contact and reducing the risk of brake fade. The high-quality castings are machined to precise specifications, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable performance.

Driving Feel & Feedback

These rotors help deliver a more responsive and confident braking experience by maintaining lower operating temperatures and reducing brake fade. The slot and dimple design contribute to a more controlled pedal feel and improved modulation, especially during repeated or heavy braking.

Installation & Fitment

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician, with attention to proper torque specifications and rotor alignment. Verify fitment against your vehicle’s specifications to ensure compatibility.

What’s Included

This set includes two front rotors, ready for installation on your vehicle’s braking system. Hardware and additional accessories are not included and should be sourced separately if required.
