APR BRK00038 OE Replacement Advance Street Brake Pads

If you're looking to upgrade your braking performance without sacrificing daily drivability, the APR BRK00038 OE Replacement Advance Street Brake Pads are just what you need. Designed specifically for a range of Audi and Volkswagen models, these pads are a direct replacement for your factory setup, providing a noticeable improvement in both feel and performance.

Why Choose APR BRK00038?

These brake pads are engineered from a high-friction material that remains fade-free at operating temperatures well beyond typical OEM pads. This means you can push your vehicle harder without worrying about brake fade ruining your drive. The torque curves are meticulously designed to maximize the grip of street-legal tires, ensuring that you get the most out of your braking system without risking premature wheel lockup.

One of the standout features of the BRK00038 pads is their low thermal conductivity. This characteristic helps to minimize heat transfer to critical components like brake calipers, pressure seals, and brake fluid, which enhances the overall durability and performance of your braking system. You’ll enjoy a pedal feel akin to entry-level race pads, but with the added benefit of excellent cold response and minimal disc wear—something that typical race pads can’t offer in a street application.

When paired with the APR Direct Replacement Brake Discs, these pads provide a no-compromise solution for both spirited daily driving and casual commutes.
