Brake Drums & Rotors

Replacement Brake Rotors from Brembo are designed to boost the overall rotor cooling and resistance to thermal cracking. These Brembo Brake Rotors are made of high-carbon compounds that help dampen vibrations and reduce noise while improving braking comfort. Replacement Brake Rotors ensure perfect compatibility between the friction material and the rotor.

Brake Hardware

Brake Drum Hardware Kits consist of a variety of parts designed to restore your VW’s brake system to perform like new. The kit includes caliper anti-rattle clips, seals, pins, dust boots, drum shoe return springs, hold down springs and adjuster assemblies that help maintain consistent and balanced braking. We also stock Brake Drum Hardware Kits and EMPI Emergency Brake Handle Kits.

Brake Pads & Shoes

Severe-Duty Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets from Satisfied Brake can handle extreme temperature and can handle much faster than semi-metallic pads. These Satisfied Brake Pads eliminate 99% of noise and require very less pedal effort to ensure a smooth stop. VW Brake Pads are superior to metal-based pads and the ceramic friction has a high modulus of elasticity for unmatched performance.

Gransport GS-6 Carbon Ceramic Performance Pad Sets from Satisfied Brake are ideal for Cross-Drilled and Slotted Brake Rotors to maximize stopping performance and extend brake life. These brake pads are integrally molded with a RaceGrid® technology that bonds friction to the backing plate to eliminate pad torque and heat separation, which is the major cause of brake failure under severe braking conditions. They include special carbon ceramic formulations that provide up to 30% better coefficient of friction and stopping power.

Premium Gold Semi-Metallic Brake Pads and Hardware Kits from Remsa are fully equipped with a professional grade, semi-metallic lining for extended service life. They come with a special high temperature moly lube to ensure a safe, quiet and quality performance brake installation. Our selection of VW Brake Pads and VW Brake Shoes also includes Classic Brake Pad Sets, Performance Brake Pad Sets, Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets and Platinum Disc Brake Pad Sets
