Product Description

The EBC S13KR1155 is a rear axle brake upgrade kit designed for BMW Z3 Roadster platforms. It combines EBC Yellowstuff high-friction brake pads with RK-series OEM-style rotors to deliver improved stopping performance, stronger pedal response, and better resistance to brake fade compared to factory braking components.

The rotors are manufactured from high-quality cast iron and feature a corrosion-resistant Geomet coating to improve durability and resist rust over time. Their balanced construction ensures smooth braking performance with reduced vibration, while the Yellowstuff compound provides consistent friction across a wide temperature range suitable for daily driving and spirited use.

This kit is engineered as a direct bolt-on replacement for compatible BMW Z3 rear brake systems equipped with standard OEM rotor sizing. It is ideal for drivers seeking a reliable braking upgrade without requiring modifications or aftermarket components.
