Description
This application-specific Brembo package brings a more capable rear braking solution to Audi 2008–2016 R8 4.2 / 5.2 (CC Brake Eqpt), particularly for cars seeing higher-grip tires, faster laps, or sustained mountain driving.
Variant choices
- Rotor Style: Type 3 Slotted, Type 1 Slotted, Drilled
- Caliper Finish: Yellow, Silver, Red, Black
Where both drilled and slotted versions are offered, the rotor selection changes the friction-ring treatment while retaining the application-specific package. Choose the version that best matches your intended duty cycle and preferred setup.
Why it suits this chassis
The underlying chassis is a high-performance sports-car platform where brake feel, thermal control, and preserving chassis balance are central to the driving experience. A correctly sized Brembo system gives the driver more margin when braking zones are repeated and tire grip or vehicle speed has increased beyond stock use.
What this package is
Brembo’s GT line is aimed at enthusiasts who want a substantial step beyond the factory braking system without giving up everyday usability.
- Axle: Rear
- Brembo family: GT
- Catalog specification: 6-Piston Cast; 380x32mm 2-Piece
Where it fits best
Best suited to enthusiastic street cars, canyon use, autocross, and HPDE builds that need more repeatable braking without moving to a race-only setup. As a rear kit, it is especially useful when the goal is to complement a front brake upgrade and preserve balanced brake behavior across the chassis.
