Stock rotors on the 1987-1993 Mustang 5.0 handle daily driving, but push them through repeated hard stops and heat soak, pad glazing, and brake fade become real concerns. EBC's GD7022 GD Sport rear rotors address those limits with a slotted and dimple-drilled geometry that actively manages heat and debris at the pad interface.
Wide-aperture slots that do real work. EBC's slot design draws cool air under the brake pad and rotor contact surface, helping manage temperatures that can exceed 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit at the core of the pad during heavy braking. That airflow reduces fade, limits pad glazing, and expels dirt, mud, water, and dust that degrade stopping power on fast street cars.
Dimple drilling without the cracking risk. EBC developed the dimple-drilled rotor in the 1990s as a way to allow pad degassing without through-drilling the disc. Through-holes concentrate stress and promote rotor cracking under thermal cycling; dimples deliver the same gas-venting benefit while preserving rotor integrity across the full service life.
Third-generation corrosion protection. Every GD series rotor ships with a silver corrosion-resistant finish that keeps the hat and unswept surfaces from rusting out between uses. 100% machined in the United Kingdom from R90-approved blanks, with the majority of castings sourced from EU foundries operating to ISO and BS5750 standards, each rotor undergoes a full runout inspection, metallurgy check, and dimensional verification before release. USA-facility slotting and final balance checks complete the process.
Product Benefits
