EBC 3GD Dimpled & Slotted Front Brake Rotors
2008–2015 Scion xB (xB2)
GD7413
Overview:
The EBC 3GD Dimpled & Slotted Front Brake Rotors are engineered specifically for the 2008 to 2015 Scion xB (xB2) model. Designed to enhance braking performance, these rotors feature a unique combination of wide aperture slots and blind drilled dimples that improve cooling efficiency and reduce brake fade during demanding driving conditions. Ideal for drivers seeking reliable, consistent stopping power with reduced brake dust and improved pad life, these rotors offer a significant upgrade over standard OEM components.
Whether you drive in urban traffic, tow light loads, or encounter wet and off-road conditions, the EBC 3GD rotors provide superior heat dissipation and debris removal to maintain optimal braking performance. Their design also helps extend the life of your brake pads by keeping the braking surface cleaner and cooler.
Key Features:
These front brake rotors incorporate advanced features that deliver enhanced braking efficiency and durability:
- Wide aperture slots that draw cool air under the brake pad, reducing operating temperatures
- Blind drilled dimples to eliminate the risk of cracking common with through-drilled rotors
- Improved removal of dirt, dust, debris, and gases from the pad contact area for cleaner braking
- Enhanced performance in wet, muddy, or sandy conditions, making them suitable for light off-road use
- Anodized gold finish for corrosion resistance and a premium appearance, especially on import vehicles
- Reduces brake fade under heavy load and high-speed conditions
- Directional design with left and right specific rotors for optimal airflow and performance
- Vented construction to further improve heat dissipation
Construction & Design:
The EBC 3GD rotors are manufactured from premium disc blanks engineered for strength and durability. The blind drilled holes are strategically placed to prevent cracking, a common issue with fully drilled rotors, while the wide slots actively channel cooling air beneath the brake pads. This innovative design not only lowers brake temperatures but also helps maintain a clean braking surface by evacuating dust and debris. The anodized gold finish provides an additional layer of protection against corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance and a clean look.
Installation & Fitment:
These rotors are designed as direct replacements for the front brake rotors on 2008–2015 Scion xB (xB2) models, requiring no modifications for installation. They come as a matched pair with left and right rotors clearly marked to ensure correct directional fitment. Installation can be completed using standard brake service tools and procedures, making them suitable for both professional mechanics and experienced DIY enthusiasts.
What's Included:
- One pair (left and right) of EBC 3GD Dimpled & Slotted Front Brake Rotors
Ideal For:
These rotors are perfect for Scion xB owners who demand improved braking performance and reliability. They are especially beneficial for drivers who frequently encounter heavy braking situations, tow light loads, or drive in wet or off-road conditions. Enthusiasts looking to reduce brake dust and extend pad life will also appreciate the advanced design and materials of the EBC 3GD rotors.
