{"product":{"id":11424606552406,"title":"EBC Apollo Big Brake Kit for Ford Focus RS Mk2 | BBK008","body_html":"\u003ch2\u003eGive your Focus RS braking worthy of the drive\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe appeal of your Focus RS is not just what happens when you accelerate. A more reassuring brake pedal makes the whole drive more rewarding. The EBC Apollo BBK008 combines four-piston front calipers with 355 mm floating discs for the listed Mk2 RS application, giving you a substantial front brake upgrade with a choice of four caliper colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKit reference: BBK008. Exact SKUs for every available configuration are listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpend on control as well as appearance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe coloured calipers look the part, but their reinforced aluminium bodies are there to resist flex when you brake. The two-piece floating discs let the friction ring expand separately as it heats up, reducing thermal stress. That gives the upgrade a clear purpose beyond filling the wheels: a firmer, more responsive feel and hardware designed for demanding repeated use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCalipers made for the way you use your car\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe road calipers are designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK from heat-treated, low-pressure cast aluminium. Their two-piece bodies use grade 12.9 bridge bolts, with hard-anodised aluminium pistons, stainless-steel bleed nipples and wear plates. The material and construction put substance behind the appearance of the upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExternal dust boots keep road dirt and debris away from the pistons, with high-temperature EPDM fluid seals behind them. A hard-anodised body gives corrosion protection beneath the high-temperature colour coating, while the single pad-retention bolt allows quick pad changes when servicing is due.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoose your kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis BBK008 offer has 355 mm discs, four-piston calipers and Black, Blue, Red or Yellow caliper configurations. Match the Focus RS application and check the wheel-clearance template before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack, Blue, Red and Yellow are the painted road-caliper choices, with external dust boots and aluminium pistons.

Wheel diameter alone does not establish spoke or caliper clearance. Send us your kit choice and wheel details if you need help arranging the check.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose a floating disc?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe friction ring can expand independently of its mounting bell as it heats up. That reduces thermal stress during repeated braking and is one of the engineering differences behind a fully floating two-piece kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo the four caliper colours change the brake size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Black, Blue, Red and Yellow share the kit specification shown on this page. They change the road-caliper finish; the supplied disc size and piston count remain those of the selected kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes this different from changing pads and discs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA big brake conversion includes new front calipers as well as the discs and pads.
