EBC GD Series Performance Front Rotors for BMW E8x E9x with TRW Calipers | Part No. GD1356
Give your BMW stopping power you can feel with EBC GD Series front rotors, part number GD1356. Engineered for cars running the TRW front caliper, these premium performance discs use wide cooling slots and precision dimples to improve bite, control heat and deliver confident braking on fast road drives, daily commuting and spirited B-road runs.
- Machined slots sweep away gas, dust and water to keep pad contact consistent and reduce fade during repeated hard stops.
- Dimpled faces aid pad deglazing without the stress risk of through-drilled holes.
- Thermic Black anti-corrosion coating for a smart OEM+ look behind the wheels and excellent rust resistance.
- Refined three-slot layout helps limit air noise while maintaining cooling efficiency.
- Grooved surface promotes even pad wear and a reassuring, progressive pedal.

Proven on customer cars
We have installed GD1356 rotors on numerous local BMWs and the feedback is consistently excellent: stronger initial bite, improved confidence on repeated stops and dependable performance over time.
Finish and durability
The Thermic Black protective finish not only looks purposeful but helps guard the non-friction areas against corrosion. Once bedded in, the pad track clears to a clean, even sweep.
Sound note
A light whoosh from the slots is normal when braking. This is the sound of the grooves working to keep the pad face fresh and temperatures in check.
