EBC GD1977 GD Sport Rear Brake Rotors for 2017+ Volkswagen Golf Mk7 1.8L Turbo

All EBC rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, exactly as used on new car production and as many as we have tools for are BRITISH MADE wholly in our own UK foundry. 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.

Brief Description: EBC GD1977 GD Sport rear brake rotors are engineered for the 2017 and newer Volkswagen Golf Mk7 with the 1.8L turbocharged engine. Designed around OE specifications, these rotors use high-quality grey cast iron and feature wide directional slots that help remove braking debris, manage heat, and support consistent performance during everyday driving, spirited use, towing, or heavier vehicle loads.

EBC manufactures its rotors through a controlled process that includes material analysis, grain-structure inspection, tensile-strength testing, hardness testing, ductility verification, and runout testing. Where applicable, EBC products are produced in its own British foundry using in-house tooling. Approved-source components are also specified and tested to meet EBC performance and quality requirements.

These EBC GD Sport rotors are intended for applications using FMSI pad number D1779. The slotted design helps clear dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone while promoting cooler brake operation. An anodized protective finish helps resist surface corrosion, with the specific finish and appearance varying by application. The result is a dependable rear brake upgrade for drivers seeking improved heat management and braking consistency without sacrificing fitment compatibility.

What's Included: One pair of EBC GD Sport rear brake rotors. Brake pads, installation hardware, and mounting accessories are not included unless specified by the vehicle application.

Fitment: Designed for 2017+ Volkswagen Golf Mk7 models equipped with the 1.8L turbocharged engine. Verify vehicle year, engine, brake configuration, and FMSI pad number D1779 before installation.
