EBC USR7752 USR Series Sport Slotted Rear Brake Rotors
Updated June 19, 2026
The EBC USR7752 is a rear brake rotor from EBC's Ultimax USR (Ultimax Slotted Rotor) series, designed as a direct replacement for specific Honda models. These one-piece, solid rotors feature a narrow slot pattern intended to reduce wind noise compared to traditional wide-slot sport rotors, while still providing improved cooling and pad cleaning. The rotors are finished with a black Thermic coating that protects non-contact areas from corrosion and provides a clean appearance. Each rotor measures 260mm in diameter, 9mm thick, with a 64.1mm center hole and 5 bolt holes, and is compatible with FMSI pad shape D1878.

Design and Features
The USR7752 rotors are part of EBC's 'Super Silent' USR line, which uses a narrow, angled slot design to minimize the characteristic whistling or wind noise often associated with slotted rotors. The slots help expel gas and debris from the pad-rotor interface, reducing brake fade and keeping the pad surface flat. The black Thermic coating is applied to all non-braking surfaces to resist rust and corrosion, while the friction surface is left uncoated so the coating wears away quickly during the first few stops. These rotors are precision-machined in the UK from high-quality grey iron.
Vehicle Fitment and Compatibility
These rear rotors are engineered for the 2016 and later Honda Civic (excluding the Si trim) and the 2019-2022 Honda Insight. Fitment includes Civic Coupe, Sedan, and Hatchback models with the 1.5L turbo engine, as well as non-turbo variants. The rotors are a solid (non-vented) design and are intended for the rear axle only. They are a direct bolt-on replacement using the factory 5-lug pattern and require no modifications. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle's brake system, as some trims or model years may have different rotor dimensions.
Performance and Installation Notes
EBC recommends pairing the USR7752 rotors with their Greenstuff, Yellowstuff, or Redstuff brake pads for optimal performance and reduced dust. The rotors can also be used with quality OEM-equivalent pads. During installation, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of oil or grease. A proper bed-in procedure is essential: perform a series of moderate to firm stops from 30-40 mph to transfer an even layer of pad material onto the rotor. The black coating on the friction surface will wear off during this process. These rotors are not directional, so they can be mounted on either side of the vehicle.
Common Symptoms and Diagnosis
Signs that rear brake rotors need replacement include pulsation or vibration during braking, visible scoring or grooves deeper than 1.5mm, and a steering wheel or pedal shudder. Warped rotors often cause a rhythmic pedal pulsation. The USR7752 rotors are a performance upgrade that can help reduce these issues through improved heat dissipation. When inspecting, measure rotor thickness; the minimum allowable thickness is typically stamped on the rotor hat. Also check for cracks, excessive rust on the friction surface, or uneven pad wear.
