Product Description

The EBC S9KF1497 Front Brake Kit upgrades your compact Toyota or Pontiac's front brakes with rotors and pads optimized for durability and performance. Built with USR fine-slotted rotors and high-friction Yellowstuff pads, it delivers sharper brake response and reduced fade under street and light track conditions.

Ideal for Corolla, Matrix, and Vibe owners using their vehicles for daily driving, occasional track, or towing small trailers. These direct-fit front brakes need no modifications and maintain factory rotor dimensions (275 mm diameter, 25 mm thickness). The included Yellowstuff pads and slotted rotors offer better thermal handling, resulting in smoother, more reliable stopping power with reduced dust and noise.
