Product Description

The EBC BSD972 front rotors are designed to significantly improve braking performance for turbocharged AWD vehicles like the Subaru WRX/STI, Forester XT, Impreza, Outback, and Saab 9-2X. At 294 mm in diameter with a vented design and bi-directional Blade Sport Disc slots, these rotors rapidly evacuate heat and gases to maintain optimal pad-to-rotor contact and prevent fade during spirited driving or track conditions.

Made from high-carbon discalloy iron and coated with silver-grey Geomet, the BSD972 rotors resist corrosion and warping even under pressure. They are dynamically balanced to ensure quiet, smooth stops directly with factory calipers and FMSI D647 pads - no additional hardware or machining needed. UK-built to high-quality standards, these front rotors deliver reliable, enhanced braking performance while preserving OEM fitment and safety.
