Overview:

The EBC Ultimax Rear Brake Pads are engineered as a premium replacement solution for the 2008 to 2015 Scion xB2. Designed to deliver reliable stopping power, these high-friction pads are ideal for everyday driving on cars, vans, and SUVs. They offer a direct fit replacement that meets or exceeds original equipment standards, ensuring safety and performance without the premium price tag.

These brake pads are perfect for drivers seeking a balance of excellent braking performance, reduced rotor wear, and minimal dust generation. Whether you are replacing worn pads or upgrading from lower-quality aftermarket options, the Ultimax pads provide consistent, fade-resistant braking with enhanced longevity.

Key Features:

The EBC Ultimax Rear Brake Pads incorporate advanced technology and design features to optimize braking efficiency and durability:

• High-friction material with a nominal coefficient of friction of 0.46 for confident stopping power
• Shimmed, chamfered, and slotted design to reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
• Unique EBC Brake-In coating for rapid and effective pad bedding-in
• ECE R90 approved, meeting stringent European brake safety regulations
• Significantly reduced rotor wear—up to 50% less compared to conventional semi-metallic pads
• Black coded friction material engineered to minimize brake dust similar to original equipment
• Ability to compensate for mild brake judder after initial use, improving ride comfort
• Durable construction that often allows rotors to last through two pad replacement cycles

Construction & Design:

The Ultimax pads are manufactured using a premium friction compound that balances aggressive stopping power with rotor-friendly characteristics. The pads feature chamfered edges and slots that help dissipate heat and gases generated during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade and uneven pad wear. The inclusion of shims further dampens noise and vibration, resulting in a quieter braking experience.

EBC’s proprietary Brake-In coating accelerates the bedding process, ensuring the pads quickly conform to the rotor surface for optimal contact and performance. This coating also helps prevent glazing and extends pad life.

Performance & Sound

These brake pads deliver consistent, fade-resistant braking performance suitable for daily driving and light-duty use. The design minimizes brake judder and noise, providing a smooth and quiet braking experience. Drivers will notice reduced brake dust compared to many aftermarket alternatives, keeping wheels cleaner for longer.
