EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors
2008–2015 Scion xB (xB2)
USR7413
Overview:
The EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors are engineered specifically for the 2008 to 2015 Scion xB (xB2), delivering enhanced braking performance for everyday driving and spirited street use. Designed as a direct replacement for your factory rotors, these one-piece slotted rotors improve heat dissipation and pad bite, helping to maintain consistent braking power under demanding conditions. Ideal for drivers seeking a balance between reliable street performance and affordability, the USR series offers a refined upgrade that complements high-friction brake pads for optimal results.
These rotors are sold as a pair, including both left and right sides, ensuring a complete front axle upgrade. When paired with EBC’s Redstuff, Greenstuff, or Yellowstuff brake pads, the USR rotors deliver superior braking feel, reduced fade, and longer pad life, making them an excellent choice for Scion xB owners looking to enhance their vehicle’s stopping power without compromising daily drivability.
Key Features:
The EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors incorporate advanced design elements to improve braking efficiency and rotor longevity. Key features include:
- Precision-machined narrow slots that promote pad degassing and remove dust, dirt, water, and debris from the braking surface
- Improved heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during aggressive driving or extended use
- Slots designed to maintain smooth and flat pad wear for consistent braking performance
- Reduced air noise compared to conventional slotted rotors, providing quieter operation
- Durable one-piece construction for reliable strength and long service life
- Optimized for use with high-friction EBC brake pads to maximize stopping power
- Direct bolt-on fitment for easy installation with no modifications required
- Ideal for premium sedans and sport compact vehicles seeking enhanced street performance
Construction & Design:
The EBC USR rotors are crafted from high-quality cast iron, engineered to withstand the rigors of daily driving and spirited braking. The slotted design features a unique fine slot pattern that effectively vents gases generated during braking, preventing pad glazing and maintaining consistent friction. This pattern also helps to channel away contaminants such as water and brake dust, ensuring a clean contact surface between the rotor and pad.
Each rotor undergoes precision machining to tight tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit and smooth rotor surface that promotes even pad wear. The one-piece rotor design balances durability with performance, providing a reliable upgrade over standard factory rotors without the complexity or cost of two-piece or drilled designs.
Performance & Sound
The USR slotted rotors are engineered to run cooler under heavy braking, reducing the risk of brake fade and maintaining consistent pedal feel. The narrow slot design minimizes the typical air noise associated with slotted rotors, resulting in quieter operation while still delivering the benefits of improved pad degassing and debris removal. When combined with EBC’s high-performance brake pads, these rotors enhance overall braking responsiveness and control, making them well-suited for drivers who demand more from their braking system without sacrificing comfort.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors is straightforward and designed to be a direct replacement for the factory rotors on the 2008–2015 Scion xB (xB2). No modifications or special tools are required, making it an ideal upgrade for both professional mechanics and experienced DIY enthusiasts. It is recommended to replace rotors in pairs to ensure balanced braking performance and to use matched high-friction brake pads for optimal results.
What's Included:
- One pair of EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors (left and right sides)
Ideal For:
The EBC USR Slotted Front Brake Rotors are perfect for Scion xB owners who want to improve their vehicle’s braking performance for daily driving, occasional spirited driving, or light track use. They are especially suited for those upgrading to EBC’s Redstuff, Greenstuff, or Yellowstuff brake pads to achieve enhanced stopping power, reduced brake fade, and longer pad life. These rotors offer a cost-effective, reliable solution for drivers seeking a noticeable improvement over stock rotors without the noise and maintenance concerns of drilled or aggressively slotted designs.
