Tyrolsport Brake Caliper Stiffening Kit - Mk5 R32, Mk6 Golf R
TyrolSports revolutionary new Rigid Caliper Sliders limit caliper flex inherent in the stock rubber-bushed design. This flex leads to uneven pad wear and rotor deposits under hard usage. This is an inexpensive but effective way to upgrade the feel and performance of the stock brake system. Track tested and mother approved! 100% stainless steel snap rings are now standard on all kits.
One kit will cover both front calipers only. The rear brake calipers are a different design and do not need modification.
We have revised our popular brake caliper kit to now feature elongated bushings with a dust cap. This will allow more protection from the elements, especially for those of us living in the “salt belt”. All of the same great features are retained with the new design, including the price. And don’t think we skimped out on any materials. These dust caps feature a durometer hardness of 88A, as well as being able to withstand temperatures of 446 F (230 C) for up to 10 minutes. What does this mean? If you think you can melt them, you’ve lost your brakes three laps ago.
