Product Description

The EBC S13KR1511 is a complete rear brake upgrade kit featuring Yellowstuff high-performance pads matched with OE-style RK rotors. It's tailored for VW Mk6 (Jetta, Golf, GTI, Beetle, Passat, Eos) and Audi A3 models with rear disc brakes and Bosch-style calipers, delivering approximately 30-40% better stopping power compared to OEM rear pads. The rotors are pre-balanced, run-out checked, and coated with Thermic Black to fend off corrosion - no need to remove coating before installation.

Installation is simple bolt-on; the kit includes lube for caliper slide pins and requires no modifications. The pre-applied brake-in coating on the pads ensures quicker bedding and reduced initial noise. The kit comes with a 12-month/10,000-mile pad warranty and 6-month/10,000-mile rotor coverage, conditional on keeping the coating intact.

Fitment is confirmed through 2018; coverage for 2019-2025 is currently unverified. Ideal for drivers seeking enhanced braking performance on spirited street use or light performance drives. For best braking balance, pair this rear kit with corresponding front Yellowstuff and RK rotors.
