EBC GD1355 Performance Rear Rotors for BMW 1 Series E81 E87 with TRW Rear Fitment

Give your BMW 1 Series the stopping power it deserves with EBC GD-series grooved and dimpled rear rotors. This is a direct bolt-on upgrade for models using the TRW rear caliper setup, delivering cooler running, sharper bite and consistent pedal feel on fast road and daily driving. We have installed these on customer cars and feedback has been excellent, with drivers praising the improved confidence and control.

Why this upgrade works

• Grooved channels help sweep away dust and hot gases to keep the friction surface clean and responsive under repeated braking.
• Blind-drilled dimples aid degassing without the cracking risk often associated with fully cross-drilled rotors.
• Thermic Black anti-corrosion finish looks smart behind the wheel and helps resist rust in UK conditions.
• Improved heat management helps reduce fade and supports a firm, consistent pedal on spirited drives.
• Maintains flatter pad contact across the face of the disc for stable wear and reliable performance.
