Product Description

The EBC S20K1996 is a complete front and rear brake kit designed for the 2015-2019 Subaru WRX platform. It combines EBC's Ultimax2 brake pad compound with OE-style RK-series rotors, delivering consistent braking performance for daily driving and spirited street use. This kit is engineered as a direct OEM replacement, restoring factory braking balance while improving pad life, noise control, and corrosion resistance.

Each rotor is precision-balanced and treated with a corrosion-resistant coating to ensure long-term durability in all weather conditions. The pads feature aramid fiber construction with chamfered edges and shims to reduce vibration and noise, while the Brake-in surface coating allows faster bedding after installation.

This kit is intended for drivers who want a full braking refresh rather than partial upgrades. By replacing all four corners together, it ensures even wear distribution, stable pedal feel, and predictable stopping performance across all driving conditions.
