EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads

2011–2016 Scion tC2

DP41947R

Overview:

The EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads are engineered specifically for the 2011 to 2016 Scion tC (tC2), delivering exceptional stopping power for both street and track applications. These ultra-high friction pads utilize an aramid fiber-based compound that provides immediate braking performance from cold temperatures, eliminating the need for warm-up. Designed for drivers who demand superior braking response during aggressive driving, the Yellowstuff pads excel in race, track day, and spirited street use.

Unlike conventional street pads, the Yellowstuff compound increases in effectiveness as it heats up, offering enhanced grip under hard braking conditions. While these pads produce more brake dust than low-dust alternatives, their performance benefits make them a top choice for enthusiasts seeking a balance between daily drivability and track capability.

Key Features:

These rear brake pads incorporate advanced technology and materials to meet the demands of performance driving:

• Aramid fiber-based compound for high friction from cold
• Dual-purpose design suitable for street and track use
• Improved braking power with heat buildup during aggressive driving
• Available in two compound versions: DM1793 (recommended) and DM2846
• DM1793 offers slightly harder material for longer life and better track feedback
• DM2846 favored by professional GT3 racers for high-efficiency caliper setups
• Pair includes both left and right rear pads for complete axle replacement
• Designed to fit standard OEM rear brake calipers on Scion tC2

Construction & Design:

The Yellowstuff pads are constructed using a proprietary aramid fiber compound that provides a unique blend of durability and high friction. This material is engineered to deliver strong initial bite without the typical warm-up period required by many performance pads. The compound’s formulation allows it to maintain consistent braking force even under the elevated temperatures generated during track sessions or spirited driving.

Each pad is precision-molded to match the exact specifications of the Scion tC2’s rear brake system, ensuring proper fitment and optimal contact with the rotor surface. The robust backing plates and bonding agents used in the pads contribute to reduced pad fade and enhanced structural integrity over time.

Performance & Sound

EBC Yellowstuff pads provide aggressive braking performance with a firm pedal feel and excellent modulation. They are designed to increase in friction as they heat, delivering stronger stopping power during extended hard braking. While these pads are not low-dust, they produce a characteristic sound typical of high-performance brake compounds, which can be considered a natural indicator of their aggressive nature.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation of the EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads is straightforward and requires no modifications to the factory brake system on the 2011–2016 Scion tC2. They are designed to directly replace the OEM rear pads, fitting precisely into the existing caliper hardware. It is recommended to inspect rotors and hardware during installation and replace or service as necessary to ensure optimal braking performance.

What's Included:

• One pair of rear brake pads (left and right sides)
• Manufactured to OEM specifications for direct fitment

Ideal For:

The EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads are ideal for Scion tC2 owners who want a versatile brake pad capable of handling daily driving demands while offering enhanced performance for occasional track days or spirited driving. Enthusiasts seeking immediate brake response without warm-up and those who prioritize braking power over low dust will find these pads an excellent upgrade from stock.

Emissions Note

Some EBC Yellowstuff compounds carry ECE R90 approval for street legality in Europe. Customers should verify with EBC’s technical department regarding compliance for highway use in regions where regulation 90 applies. Outside Europe, these pads can be installed and enjoyed without restriction.
