A more satisfying brake upgrade for BMW 1 Series 118d F20 xDrive
Enjoy a more responsive brake setup with EBC fine-slotted USR discs and Yellowstuff pads for BMW 1 Series 118d F20 xDrive 2011-2019. This package covers the front axle, with the disc and pad references matched to the original brake configurations shown below.
Fine-slotted discs for a road-friendly upgrade
USR discs use fine slots to give you a sport disc with less groove-related wind noise than EBC's wider-grooved GD design. The discs and performance pads are supplied together for the stated axle, making this a useful upgrade when you want more pad bite while retaining the correct factory brake layout.
A protective finish for the discs
The Thermic anti-corrosion coating protects the discs before fitting and helps keep the non-contact areas protected in use. The pads sweep the working faces as the brakes bed in. Caliper lubricant is supplied with the kit for the appropriate fitting points.
Your supplied pad compound
Yellowstuff: We recommend Yellowstuff for fast-road use, with strong cold bite and a high-friction feel. It is the road-focused choice here. EBC no longer recommends Yellowstuff for track use on most cars because of its longer bedding process.
Custom tuning for your car
If your next step is more power, we also offer custom ECU tuning. Tell us about your car and what you want to achieve, and we'll talk you through suitable options. Tuning is a separate purchase.

Vehicle fitment
Match your model, engine, year and original brake specification to an eligible kit code below. Brake-package notes and measurements are part of the fitment.
| Kit codes | Vehicle | Engine | Power (BHP) | Years | Brake and fitting requirements |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PD08KF087 | BMW 1 Series (xDrive F20) 118 | 2 Turbo Diesel | 2011-2019 | Front: Front caliper: ATE; Front disc style: Vented; Front bolt holes: 5; Front disc diameter (mm): 284; Front disc height (mm): 73; Front new disc thickness (mm): 22; Front minimum disc thickness (mm): 20 |
The engine-output figures describe the original vehicle in BHP; they are not a power gain from the brake kit.
These kits match the original brake configurations shown in the fitment table. If your car already has different calipers or discs, tell us what's fitted so we can help you choose the right parts.
Fitting and bedding in
Professional fitting is recommended. Follow the fitting and bedding instructions for the supplied parts, and allow the pads to bed correctly before demanding full braking performance. The condition and operation of the calipers, hubs and other braking components also matter to the finished result.
Frequently asked questions
What is included in an axle kit?
A pair of USR discs and the matching pad set for the axle stated against the selected kit code. The component table lists the exact references; calipers are a separate purchase.
Will I need to change my calipers?
The kit is a direct replacement for the matching factory brake setup. Keep the original calipers for that application and match the listed disc measurements, pad references and any brake-package conditions.
How does USR compare with wider-grooved discs?
USR's fine slots reduce groove-related wind noise compared with EBC's wider-grooved GD discs. It is a useful choice when you want a sport disc while keeping road noise in mind.
What warranty is supplied?
The PD08K and PD09K ranges carry EBC's 12-month/10,000-mile kit warranty. Contact us if you need help with a warranty enquiry.
