The EBC DP81996RPX RP-X Rear Brake Pads are built for serious track work—no warm-up needed, just instant stopping power. Designed for the BMW E82 and E88 platforms, these pads bring the kind of bite you’d expect when pushing limits at sprint races, time attacks, or hill climbs. The compound kicks in from cold and keeps gripping up to 850°C, which means consistent, confident braking lap after lap.

Compared to EBC’s RP-1 compound, RP-X offers more bite—about 25% more across the temperature range. That extra friction can make a big difference, especially on heavier cars or setups without aggressive brake boosters. If you’ve ever felt your brakes fade or underdeliver during tight corners or downhill sprints, you’ll know why that matters. Still, for lighter builds or non-ABS cars, it might feel a bit aggressive—so keep your setup in mind.

These aren’t your daily pads—they’re for drivers who expect precision, not compromise. Track day regulars, you’ll appreciate the difference from the first corner.

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.

  • Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content.  Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
  • Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
  • Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
  • Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
