Part #: GD7172

Overview

The EBC GD Sport Rear Rotors are designed to enhance your Mazda RX8's braking performance while adding a sleek, aggressive look to your vehicle. Crafted with both style and function in mind, these rotors are an excellent upgrade for daily drivers, commuting, and spirited driving enthusiasts who want reliable stopping power combined with improved cooling. Whether you're tackling city streets or enjoying a weekend canyon run, these rotors help support consistent braking performance and help prevent brake fade during demanding driving conditions.

Key Features

The GD Sport rotors feature wide aperture slots that significantly improve heat dissipation, reducing operating temperatures and helping to prevent brake fade during extended or aggressive use. The slots also serve to expel gases and debris from the braking surface, maintaining optimal contact between the brake pad and rotor for consistent stopping power. Dimple drilling on the rotor surface enhances stress distribution, reducing the risk of stress cracks and increasing durability under high-stress conditions. The thermic black finish not only provides a sleek, modern look but also offers excellent corrosion resistance, protecting your rotors from road salts and environmental elements.

Construction & Design
