EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads: High-Performance Upgrade for Audi RS Models
Equipped your Audi with the EBC DP42516R Yellowstuff rear brake pads, engineered for drivers who demand reliable stopping power in everyday commutes and aggressive track runs. Crafted from an aramid fiber compound, these pads grab hold right from cold starts, delivering a stable 0.48 friction coefficient that holds steady up to 450°C without losing grip during extended hard braking. They outperform standard pads by providing stronger initial bite and resisting fade under heat, ensuring shorter stopping distances for your powerful V8-equipped Audi. R90 approved for road legality and copper-free for environmental standards, the DP42516R set includes a Brake-In red coating on the pad surface to speed up bedding-in and clear any rotor glazing for even contact from the first mile.
Ideal for the demands of high-horsepower Audis, these pads match or exceed OEM performance on German vehicles while offering track-ready durability with zero risk of rotor wear. Users report smooth, quiet operation across conditions, with fully shimmed, slotted, and chamfered edges that reduce noise to medium levels and produce manageable dust. Whether carving canyons or pushing limits at the circuit, the DP42516R delivers consistent results that keep you in control lap after lap.
