My husband got the EBC 14" rotor part #RK7636X and they fit just like the oem. He got them from THmotorsports within 3 days of purchase, they are great and the braking power is as good as factory

I have that set on my 97 civic and they work great, you'll notice a difference immediately, my only complaint is that when it rains, when they dry, the rotors will rust, but that goes away as soon as you drive your car.

So I spoke to EBC and these are the ones I'm going with. There are vented, and drilled, and better pads, but would be a waste, and wouldn't last as long. My GS will never see the track, so these are best for me.


Front - EBC RedStuff Pads (DP33017C)
Front - EBC OE Replacement Rotors (RK7636X)
Rear - EBC RedStuff Pads (DP31850C)
Rear - EBC OE Replacement Rotors (RK7637)

Tried the ebc rotors. Squealed like a mother****er! Ditched them and went back to oem.

Maybe try RR racing’s version of 14” replacement rotors?

I have instaled Stop Tech rotors and pads on my 2013 GS 350 AWD this past summer. Big difference compared with the OEM set. Love it. Way better byte, shorter braking distance. However, a bit more dusty than the OEM.
