Default :: ECS Tuning :: B5 A4 GEOMET OE Big Brake Kits!!

Improve braking performance with a sale-priced ECS Tuning Big Brake Kit. Bolt on larger rotors, standard finish or GEOMET slotted or slotted-and-drilled.

Then mount your original calipers away from the spindle centerline with the kit's larger caliper frames for added mechanical leverage and shorter stops.

No need to cough up extra bucks for a set of larger calipers, and you can go on buying readily available standard sized brake pads.

Kits with GEOMET rotors ship for FREE!

Click HERE to order or for more information.


Let me know if you have any questions.

What's up with the rumor that the ECS had an(other)issue with customer credit card data being compromised?

Care to comment on that?

Forum Members:

We value our relationship with you and we look forward to serving your future needs. Regrettably, we would like to inform you that between May 6th and May 10th, 2012, unauthorized access by an unknown third party concerning customers' personal information associated with pending and previously shipped orders occurred. This breach affects less than 3.0% of the ECS Tuning customer base. We have taken prompt action to secure the system to prevent any further compromises.

Please be assured that ECS Tuning Incorporated is taking this matter very seriously. We have been working diligently with merchant services to investigate the unauthorized activity and have identified and secured the method of unauthorized access. We have notified the credit card companies and have provided them with information they have requested so they can notify the banks that issued the affected credit cards. We have also filed a case with the local Wadsworth, Ohio Police Department (Case# 21205162) and are cooperating with their investigation. We believe we were one of many companies targeted during this timeframe.

We have implemented the following to better secure our customer information: ECS Tuning has integrated PayPal’s Payflow Pro to add additional security to the ECS checkout process and removed the storage of credit and debit cards for any length of time regardless of order status. In addition to already meeting PCI Compliance standards, we have added additional layers of security to ensure our customer privacy, such as scanning all inbound and outbound traffic in conjunction with additional security software. With these enhancements, we are confident ECS Tuning is protecting your customer information about industry standards.

We want to also describe certain steps that you can take to protect yourself against identity theft. First, we have included instructions on how you can contact the three major credit bureaus to place a 90-day fraud alert on your account, inquire about any unusual activity on your accounts, and request a free credit report. We also suggest that you carefully review all bills and account statements you may receive over the next several months, and report any suspicious activity to the financial institution of the account at issue. If you think that your personal information is being improperly used in any manner, you can also contact local law enforcement to file a police report and contact your state Attorney General and/or the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-ID THEFT (877-438-4338). Additionally, the FTC's Web site at www.ftc.gov/idtheft has information to help individuals guard against and deal with identity theft.

We value and appreciate your business. We regret this situation and any inconvenience or concern it may cause you. ECS Tuning is committed to maintaining the security and privacy of customer information and taking all reasonable measures to prevent future breaches.

If you have any further questions/concerns, or if you would like to share details with ECS Tuning to aid in the investigation of this potential breach, please send me a PM so I can send your contact information directly to our Customer Service Manager.
