2018-2024 Volkswagen Arteon / R (3H) CCB Big Brake Kit — Genuine Brembo GT6 Front + Genuine Brembo GT4 Rear Setup
The 2018-2024 Volkswagen Arteon 3H is heavy enough and quick enough that repeated high-speed stops can expose the limits of the factory iron brake package: heat buildup, pedal fade, rotor mass, and dark dust on open-face wheels. This StopFlex kit replaces the factory setup with 380mm carbon-ceramic rotors, Brembo V6 / GT6 / GTS6 6-piston front caliper options, and matched Brembo V4 / GT4 / GTS4 4-piston rear caliper options. Each Arteon kit is built around the confirmed trim, wheel clearance, bracket geometry, and rotor-hat offset, so the buyer gets a brake system engineered for the exact car rather than a generic MQB-family assumption.
- 380mm front and rear carbon-ceramic rotors require 19-inch or larger wheels on the Arteon 3H; spoke clearance is checked separately from wheel diameter.
- Front choices are V6, GT6, or GTS6 Brembo 6-piston calipers on 380mm rotors, giving the Arteon a larger thermal mass and stiffer multi-piston clamp than the factory sliding-caliper layout.
- Rear choices are V4, GT4, or GTS4 Brembo 4-piston calipers on 380mm rotors, matched to the front package so rear braking contribution is not treated as an afterthought.

Every StopFlex kit is bespoke-engineered for your exact model and trim — the brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your specific car, not assumed from the platform. This matters because trims that share a chassis name can differ mechanically: a pure M or performance variant often carries different front knuckles/uprights, hub geometry, and wheel axial (ET) clearance than the standard models in the same family, so a bracket and hat offset that bolt onto one are not the same parts that fit the other. StopFlex supplies the calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and brake lines as a matched system built to your confirmed trim. Cars with modified knuckles, modified uprights, or non-factory suspension mounting points must be reviewed before ordering and are not treated as direct-fit.
This setup uses a 380 mm front rotor, so the minimum wheel size is 19". Wheels under 19" will not clear the caliper and rotor, and spoke profile and offset affect clearance too — confirm your exact wheels before ordering.

Caliper Overview — Front & Rear Balance
Front Caliper (Primary Upgrade)
The front axle uses Brembo V6 / GT6 / GTS6 6-Piston Caliper Options, selected by the buyer for the desired Brembo family and finish path. V6 uses a Genuine Brembo OEM Cadillac CTS-V 6-Piston Caliper with a 380mm rotor, GT6 uses a Genuine Brembo GT | M6 6-Piston Caliper with a 380mm rotor, and GTS6 uses a Genuine Brembo GT | S6 6-Piston Caliper with a 380mm rotor. The fixed 6-piston architecture spreads pad load more evenly across the carbon-ceramic disc, improving pedal consistency and clamping stability compared with a single-piston sliding front caliper.
Rear Caliper (Balance)
The rear axle uses Brembo V4 / GT4 / GTS4 4-Piston Caliper Options on 380mm carbon-ceramic rotors to keep the rear contribution matched to the larger front brake package. Because the Arteon uses an electronic parking brake, StopFlex confirms the exact rear configuration before production so EPB function and parking-brake integration are addressed in the build specification.
Front & rear, engineered together: The front and rear hardware are engineered as one brake system so piston area, rotor diameter, pad compound, hat offset, and bracket position work together on the Arteon 3H. That matters more than a front-only conversion because the car’s ABS, stability control, and brake balance depend on predictable front-to-rear torque under repeated stops.
Make It Yours — Color & Logo Customization
Every StopFlex kit-upgrade order can be finished with custom caliper colors, a custom caliper logo, and custom rotor hat colors, so the brake package matches your exact build instead of a fixed off-the-shelf look.

Why StopFlex CCB
Lower Unsprung Mass
StopFlex carbon-ceramic rotors are engineered to reduce rotor mass versus comparable iron discs, helping the suspension react cleaner and the steering feel more precise.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide matrix is built for stable braking behavior at temperatures that can push iron rotors into heavy fade.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Carbon ceramic does not form orange flash rust after rain, washing, or storage, keeping the visible rotor face cleaner behind open wheels.
Long Street-Service Potential
In normal road use with matched pads and proper bedding, StopFlex CCB rotors are designed for far longer service life than typical iron replacement rotors.
Low Visible Dust
When paired with matched StopFlex pads, the system produces very low visible brake dust compared with conventional iron rotor and pad combinations.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Appearance
StopFlex's proprietary coating creates a bright, high-end ceramic-glaze finish with subtle glaze texture and a more premium visual character behind open wheels.
Street-Usable Cold Bite
Street Spec and Track-Day Spec rotors are designed for normal first-stop road use, including cold-weather operation. Motorsport Spec is the competition-focused exception.
Continuous Fiber Reinforcement
Long-fiber carbon ceramic construction improves structural strength and thermal durability versus chopped-fiber approaches.
Heat Management Note
Carbon ceramic rotors tolerate extreme surface temperature, but they do not remove every heat-management requirement. During repeated hard stops, heat can still soak into pads, fluid, seals, calipers, wheels, and nearby components. For long track sessions, mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving, brake cooling and high-temperature fluid are still recommended.
Street / Track-Day / Motorsport Rotor Options
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.

EPB & Rear Caliper Options
This vehicle leaves the factory with an electronic parking brake (EPB) built into the rear brake, so the rear of the kit is built to keep that EPB working. There are two rear paths. The first is a dual-caliper rear: a main performance caliper handles braking while a dedicated EPB actuator caliper is retained alongside it, so the electronic parking brake, auto-hold, and hill-start assist all keep working; on this path the rear performance caliper can be the TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-piston caliper. The second is an EPB-integrated caliper, a single rear caliper with the electromechanical parking-brake motor built in for a cleaner install with fewer parts behind the wheel; on this path the rear is the TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-piston caliper with integrated EPB. Which path fits best depends on your exact trim and EPB configuration, your budget, your appearance preference, and your wheel size and spoke clearance. Confirm your car's rear-brake configuration with StopFlex before ordering so the correct EPB-compatible rear option is built for your kit.
| Rear option | What it is | Rear caliper | Best when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dual caliper (EPB retained) | Performance caliper plus a dedicated EPB actuator caliper, both fitted on the rear, so the factory electronic parking brake keeps working. | TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-Piston Caliper | You want guaranteed factory EPB, auto-hold, and hill-start behavior preserved. |
| EPB-integrated caliper | A single rear caliper with the electromechanical parking-brake motor built in, for a cleaner install with fewer parts behind the wheel. | TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-Piston Caliper with integrated EPB | You want a cleaner single-caliper rear with full EPB function. |
FAQ
Will this 380mm kit fit my exact 2018-2024 Arteon or Arteon R trim?
Fitment is confirmed before production against your exact 3H trim, original brake package, hub and knuckle layout, wheel size, wheel offset, and spoke clearance. StopFlex does not treat every Arteon, Arteon R, or shared-platform VW model as the same bracket and rotor-hat offset.
What wheel size do I need for the 380mm Arteon kit?
The 380mm rotors require 19-inch or larger wheels. Diameter alone is not enough; the Brembo 6-piston front caliper also needs spoke clearance, so wheel model, width, offset, and any spacer use should be confirmed before ordering.
Will the electronic parking brake still work with the rear upgrade?
Yes, the rear build is specified around the Arteon’s factory electronic parking brake requirement. StopFlex confirms the exact rear-caliper and EPB integration path for the customer's car before the kit is produced.
Why choose carbon-ceramic instead of staying with factory iron brakes?
Carbon-ceramic rotors reduce rotating and unsprung mass, control heat better during repeated high-speed braking, and produce less visible brake dust than iron rotors. On the Arteon 3H, that directly addresses heavy front-axle braking load, open-wheel dust, and the heat stress seen in aggressive street or track-day use.
