Brembo Rear Brake Pads for 2010-2013 Audi A3 | Low-Met OE Kit

Upgrade your 2010-2013 Audi A3 with Brembo Low-Met rear brake pads. Enjoy OE-equivalent stopping power, premium shims for quiet braking, and ECE-R90 approval.

Restore your vehicle’s factory stopping power with the Brembo Premium Low-Metallic (Low-Met) OE Equivalent Rear Brake Pad Set, specifically engineered for 2010–2013 Audi A3 models (including Base and Quattro trims). Developed by the world leader in high-performance braking, this rear brake pad set combines premium manufacturing standards with a specialized low-metallic friction formulation tailored specifically to match the demanding dynamics of European vehicles in the North American market.

Unlike generic replacement pads, Brembo Low-Met pads utilize a compound containing 10% to 50% high-quality metal content by weight. This specialized formulation excels at managing thermal loads, drawing destructive heat away from your brake calipers and rotors. To eliminate the harsh noise and vibration traditionally associated with metallic pads, Brembo integrates a multi-layer premium dampening shim on the backing plate. Fully tested and holding rigorous ECE-R90 certification, these rear pads provide an exact fit, direct pedal response, and the absolute safety assurance required for daily commuting and spirited highway driving alike.

1. Direct OE Replacement: Ideal for Audi A3 owners seeking an exact match to factory-original stopping characteristics, progressive pedal feel, and initial bite without paying dealership prices.
2. Spirited & Daily Highway Driving: Perfect for highway commuting and variable driving conditions where repetitive or sudden heavy braking creates high thermal loads.
3. European Vehicles in North America: Optimized specifically for European platforms operating under North American driving habits, prioritizing high-speed safety and reliable stopping power.

Features

1. Low-Metallic Friction Compound: Formulated with 10%–50% metal composition by weight to ensure optimal heat dissipation and consistent performance across all operating temperatures.
