Product Description

The EBC S5KF1523 Stage-5 Superstreet front brake kit upgrades braking performance on Volkswagen and Audi models with 5-lug front rotors. Featuring high-performance Yellowstuff pads with Brake-In™ coating, this kit delivers excellent initial bite, strong pedal feel, and consistent performance under demanding street driving and light towing.

GD Sport rotors are vented, slotted, and dimpled to improve heat dissipation and pad engagement, while the Geomet coating protects against road corrosion. Each rotor is pre-balanced and run-out tested for smooth, vibration-free braking. This direct-fit, front-axle kit installs easily with no modifications required. Fitment confirmed through 2017. Coverage for 2018-2025 models is unverified. This is a front-only kit; a matching rear kit is required for full axle replacement.
