  • EBC Ultimax Sport Rotors - USR Style & Duralast Gold Brake Pads

    Brand: EBC / Duralast
    Price: 192$ W/ Shipping / 35$
    Purchased From: Ebay / Autozone


    Installation: (Use easy, moderate, involved, or difficult) Easiest install I've done yet
    Installation Time: 1 and 1/2 Hours
    Any Installation Tips You Have: Read this walk through http://www.g6ownersclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8023. Also, the inner brake pad is a beyotch to slide in the housing, and that's natural.

    Quality of Part: (rate 1-10) 10 (So far, will update)
    Product Performance: (rate 1-10) 10
    Would you Recommend to Others: Most definitely. The EBC Rotors seem to be really high quality, but I truly can't comment until 2,000 miles later or so.



    Any Other Comments:

    The braking quality is unbelievable with these ceramic pad and slotted rotor combo. Some jack*** pulled stomped on the brakes in front of me so I had a really good testing opportunity unfortunately.

    So how are these holding up? Did they rust up or are they still looking great?

        Warped after a year. I'm just going to buy sets off of eBay every time I need a set. I quickly realized this cars braking set-up is doomed to failure.

          I have been using the same R1 e-line rotors since 09 and I don't have a single bit of warping, only reason I want to replace mine is due to the rust making them look like garbage with my new rims.

                Can someone snap a photo of their EBC rotors after some usage? I'm probably going to replace mine next summer to get rid of the rusty e-line rotors but I want something that's not going to rust up like these did.

                        does anyone have any recommendations for rotors that wont rust towards the center area around the hub...I don't need any performance rotors, just ones that won't rust after a month of use

                          Just pick up some unpainted rotors, then pick up a can of the black hi temp grill paint and spray that hats with it. Its always worked for me

                            My new wheels will be here in a couple of days and im about due for some rotors. I'm liking the grill paint idea. Sounds like a pretty goof winner to me as long as it rust resistant. Hardest part will be getting the stupid amount of oil off the rotor so the paint will stick.

                              I would use Gunk Brake Cleaner, that stuff is amazing. I would also check out engine paint or Rust-Oleum high temp paint.
