Product Description

The EBC S13KR1593 rear brake kit is a direct-fit performance upgrade tailored for 2015-2020 Audi A3 (including AWD Quattro), VW Golf, SportWagen, and GTI models equipped with rear disc brakes using FMSI D1761 pads. This kit is ideal for enthusiasts seeking aggressive street braking with robust rotor lifespan.

It includes GG-rated Yellowstuff aramid fiber pads that are shimmed, chamfered, and EBC Brake-In® treated for quick bedding and minimized noise. Paired with OE-style 272 mm RK rotors coated in Thermic Black/Geomet for corrosion protection, both components are balanced and run-out tested. Bolt-on installation requires no modifications, and the included caliper lube ensures proper slide-pin function.

Expect roughly 30-40% rear braking improvement versus OEM pads, with lower dust output. Warranty is valid for 12 months/10,000 miles but void if the anti-rust coating is removed or the kit is used in competition. Fitment is verified through 2020; 2021+ coverage is unconfirmed. For optimal braking, pair this rear kit with a matching front Yellowstuff/RK set.
