EBC Rear Brake Pad and Rotor Kit for Mercedes-Benz CL500 and CLS500
The EBC kit is a complete rear brake upgrade that combines Redstuff ceramic brake pads and premium RK rotors. This assembly provides consistent stopping power under daily driving conditions, with materials designed to handle repeated stops without excessive fade. The pads generate minimal dust to keep wheels clean longer, while the rotors resist corrosion through a durable Geomet coating, ensuring reliable performance mile after mile. Drivers report firmer pedal feel and quicker deceleration compared to standard replacements, making this kit a practical selection for maintaining the precision handling of luxury sedans and coupes.
