Currently EVERY SINGLE ROTOR sold in Europe and the UK is BRITISH MADE and a majority of the designs specific to the USA are also BRITISH made.The British foundry is constantly expanding its in house tooled range but EBC like every brake manufacturer ....does need occasionally to buy some rotors in from approved sources to complete ranges in overseas markets. None of our competitors will ever tell you where their rotors come from and we at EBC are as disappointed as the rest of the world that cost pressure means there is not ONE foundry left in the USA to supply such parts, other brake brands when asked about origin will just sidestep the question. When we do buy rotors in, they are specified, sampled, tested for element analysis, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness and optimum ductility and tested 100 piece by piece to be perfect for runout on this in house machine.\n64.1mm Center Hole Dia.\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRemoves dirt dust and debris from braking zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnodized For Protection\/Black For Domestics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces brake fade under load and at speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGreat For Truck\/SUV\/Towing\/For Sedan Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnodized For Protection\/Gold For Imports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide Slots Helps Brakes Run Cooler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrief Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e EBC GD1488 GD Sport front brake rotors are engineered for the 2007-2014 MINI Cooper S Hardtop 1.6T. Manufactured from OE-spec grey cast iron, these performance rotors help improve braking response, heat management, and consistency during spirited driving, towing, or demanding road use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEBC GD Sport rotors feature wide, precision-machined slots designed to remove dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone while helping keep the friction surfaces cooler. Improved heat evacuation helps reduce brake fade under load and at speed, supporting more consistent pedal feel during repeated braking. The rotors are also treated with a protective anodized finish, with a gold appearance intended for import applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEBC manufactures many rotor designs in its own British foundry and applies strict quality-control procedures to sourced components when necessary. Rotors are evaluated for material composition, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness, ductility, and runout to support dependable fit and performance. The 64.1 mm center hole is designed for the specified MINI application. Verify vehicle year, model, engine, and existing brake configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e One pair of EBC GD1488 GD Sport front brake rotors.
