Fitment Notes

• Front axle application only
• Does not fit the 2023-2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid or CR-V Fuel Cell models; fits gas-engine CR-V only
• Does not fit the 2016 or earlier Honda CR-V (4th generation uses a different pad shape)
• Does not fit the 2022 or earlier Honda HR-V (2nd generation uses a different caliper configuration)
• For balanced braking performance, EBC recommends pairing front Yellowstuff pads with matching Yellowstuff rear pads

Features

• Aramid fiber compound enhanced with ceramic granules delivers up to 30-40% higher friction than OEM pads
• Exceptional cold bite provides confident stopping from the first pedal application without warm-up

Product Description

The EBC DP43084R Yellowstuff front brake pads are engineered for Honda and Acura owners who want a meaningful improvement in stopping power over factory pads. Built from EBC's aramid fiber compound infused with ceramic granules, these pads deliver a friction coefficient rated at GG - significantly stronger than the stock pads typically fitted to the Honda CR-V, Clarity, and HR-V. The result is a noticeable reduction in stopping distance, particularly during spirited driving, highway merging, and emergency braking scenarios where confidence in the brake pedal matters most.

Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory front calipers on the 5th and 6th generation Honda CR-V (2017-2025 gas models), the 2017-2021 Honda Clarity, and the 3rd generation 2023-2024 Honda HR-V, the DP43084R requires no modifications or adapter brackets. Each pad arrives fully shimmed, slotted, and chamfered from the factory, with EBC's proprietary Brake-In surface coating pre-applied to accelerate the bedding process. The Nucap NRS hook system mechanically locks the friction material to the steel backing plate, providing a fail-safe bond that outperforms adhesive-only attachment methods.

EBC's updated copper-free Yellowstuff compound works effectively from cold - a characteristic rarely found in high-friction pad materials - making it safe and reliable for daily street driving in any climate. While no longer recommended for extended dedicated track sessions due to the longer bedding cycle of the reformulated compound, the DP43084R remains an excellent choice for autocross, spirited canyon driving, towing, and modified vehicles with increased weight or power. A 100-200 mile urban bedding period is recommended for full performance.
