• Ultimax OE Style Disc Kit

Brief Description: EBC Ultimax Slotted Front Brake Rotors are designed for 1997-2000 BMW 540i 4.4L (E39) applications requiring dependable, quiet, and consistent braking performance. The ebcRK500 Ultimax OE Style Disc Kit uses progressively angled slots to provide the benefits of a slotted rotor while minimizing the air noise commonly associated with aggressive slot designs.

Performance Benefits: The angled slots help draw cool air across the braking surface to support cooler operation during repeated braking. They also assist in clearing dust, gas, and debris from between the rotor and pad, helping maintain pad contact and consistent grip. By reducing contamination at the friction surface, the design may also support improved pad service life. These front rotors are engineered for quiet operation and are compatible with applications using FMSI pad number D547.
