When it comes to braking performance, the rear axle is just as important as the front—especially on heavier vehicles, high‑performance saloons, and grand tourers. The Brembo 07.B315.00 HP2 Rear Brake Pad Set is designed specifically for Audi, Bentley, and Volkswagen models equipped with HP2 rear calipers. This premium fast‑road pad kit provides the ideal balance of strong stopping power, clean operation, and everyday usability.

What the Brembo 07.B315.00 HP2 Rear Brake Pad Set Does
Brake pads play a crucial role in converting your vehicle’s speed into heat through friction, slowing the car safely and consistently. The Brembo 07.B315.00 HP2 pad set is engineered to deliver optimal friction stability, predictable pedal feel, and fade‑resistant performance even under demanding conditions. Designed as a direct replacement for factory HP2 rear pads, this kit slots directly into the caliper without modification and includes a correctly sized 635 mm wear sensor lead.
What sets this kit apart is its ability to combine high performance with OE‑equivalent comfort. Drivers can expect strong initial bite, progressive braking modulation, and confidence‑inspiring stability from cold through repeated stops. For vehicles that carry significant weight—such as the Transporter T5/T6 or luxury models like the Bentley Continental—this consistent braking behaviour is essential for safety and control.
