Description
The EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads (DP42047R) by EBC Brakes are a high-performance braking upgrade designed for demanding street drivers and dual-purpose street/track builds. Engineered to deliver strong bite from cold while maintaining consistent braking under heat, Yellowstuff is one of EBC’s most versatile performance compounds.
Built using an advanced aramid fiber semi-metallic compound, these rear brake pads provide predictable pedal feel and stable braking torque even during repeated high-speed stops. With an operating range extending up to 900°F (480°C), Yellowstuff resists fade far better than conventional street pads, making it suitable for aggressive driving, autocross, and occasional track use.
Each pad set is factory scorched (pre-bedded) for fast break-in and immediate performance. Precision slots and chamfered edges help reduce noise, control heat buildup, and promote even wear, while the rotor-friendly formulation minimizes disc wear when properly bedded.
This specific listing is for the rear axle only and is ideal for performance-oriented BMW sedans, SUVs, and hybrid models—including the BMW i8—where consistent rear brake performance is critical for balance and stability.
