Hard-driven Volkswagens need brakes that keep up with boost, corner speed and late braking. This page pulls together brake performance parts for key VW models, from Golf MK5 GTI projects to Transporter T6.1 daily workhorses.

Every model section is focused around discs, pads and matching hardware that suit the factory disc sizes. That means the options shown for Golf MK5, MK6, MK7, MK7.5 and MK8 (GTI, GTD and R) are aimed at cars running the listed front and rear disc dimensions, so choosing the right setup for your spec is easy.

Looking at a hot hatch build?

• Golf MK5 / MK5 GTI listings are ideal for first-time upgrades on tuned 2.0T cars.
  
• Golf MK6 & MK6 R parts help sort soft pedal feel and give more bite for mapped street cars.
  
• Golf MK7 & MK7.5 GTI, GTD, R options suit everything from fast road to track toys.
  
• Golf MK8 & MK8 R parts cater for newer builds running more power and sticky tyres.
  

Need something for load and miles rather than lap times?

• Transporter T4, T5/T5.1 308 mm, T6 & T6.1 sections focus on disc and pad combos that cope with weight, towing and long motorway days, while still feeling sharp when the van is empty and getting driven hard.
  

Expect to see a mix of plain and machined discs, uprated pads, braided lines and fluids across the range. Match them to the correct VW model and disc size, and the result is stronger bite, better heat control and a pedal that feels ready for B-road blasts, late-night runs and the odd track session.
