EBC S9KR1657 Yellowstuff + USR Slotted Rear Brake Kit - Performance Upgrade

Vehicle Fitment (candidate applications - verify your rotor/hub specs)

• 2019-2022 Hyundai Veloster N (rear axle, 5-lug hub, matching rotor spec)
• 2022 Hyundai Kona N / 2023 Elantra N - rear axle (as listed by some retailers when 5-lug & matching disc spec are confirmed)
• Other cars/trims using 5-lug rear hubs and 314 mm (or similar) slotted rotor geometry - confirm with hub & caliper measurement before order

Features

• High-friction "Yellowstuff" aramid-fiber brake pads - strong initial bite and improved stopping power over stock pads
• USR-series fine-slotted rear rotors - slots help evacuate brake gases, dust, water and debris, maintaining consistent pad-to-rotor contact under load
• Vented and slotted rotor design to help dissipate heat and reduce fade under repeated or heavy braking
• Cast-iron rotor construction with corrosion-resistant coating for enhanced durability and long rotor life
• Pre-shimmed, chamfered pads with EBC "Brake-In" surface - for quicker bedding-in and reliable initial braking performance
• Direct bolt-on kit - rotors and pads designed to match stock 5-lug rear hub setups when rotor size & caliper geometry match
• Sold as 2-wheel set (both left and right rear) for complete rear-axle replacement or upgrade
• Good balance of performance and everyday usability - suitable for spirited street driving, daily use, and improved braking response under load.

Specifications

• Position: Rear axle (2-wheel set)
• Rotor type: Slotted, vented, cast-iron (USR series)
• Number of lug holes: 5 (5-lug hub bolt pattern)
• Pad material: Yellowstuff high-friction aramid-fiber compound
• Rotor set sold as matched pair (left + right)
• Intended use: Performance-oriented upgrade / improved rear braking power vs stock - street, commuting, occasional spirited driving

Included Components

• 2x Rear slotted vented rotors (USR series - left & right)
• 1x Set of Yellowstuff rear brake pads (for both rear calipers - total pads for left & right)

Product Description

The EBC S9KR1657 kit offers a bolt-on upgrade to rear braking systems that match its 5-lug hub and rotor geometry. By pairing high-friction Yellowstuff pads with USR fine-slotted, vented rotors, this kit delivers stronger braking bite, better pad-to-rotor contact under load, and improved thermal stability compared with many standard rear brakes. This makes it especially useful for rear-axle applications on performance-oriented cars or everyday vehicles where improved rear braking response and fade resistance are desired.

Because both rotors and pads are supplied as a matched rear-axle set, installation is simplified - no need to source parts separately when your rotor diameter, hub bolt pattern and caliper design match the kit specification. The slotted rotors help evacuate heat and brake debris, while the pad compound ensures consistent stopping power. For drivers who want to upgrade rear brake performance (for spirited driving, heavier loads, or enhanced safety), S9KR1657 offers a practical, balanced solution.

**Before ordering or installing:** confirm your vehicle's rear hub bolt pattern (5-lug), rotor diameter and thickness, and caliper/pad backing geometry. After install, verify rotor run-out, torque hardware correctly, and perform a proper pad bedding-in procedure to ensure optimal brake performance and pad/rotor longevity.
