Will This Fit My Car?
Full Upgrade CCB Big Brake Kits (With Calipers) for the 2006-2013 Volkswagen Golf (Mk5/Mk6). This page's exact brake setup:
| Model Years | Front Setup | Rear Setup | Min. Wheel Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2006-2013 | AP Racing CP9560 Radi-CAL II 6-Piston Caliper / 380mm | AP Racing CP9541 Radi-CAL II 4-Piston Caliper / 380mm | 19" |
Every StopFlex kit is bespoke-engineered for your exact model and trim — brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your specific car, never assumed from the platform. Trims that share a chassis name can differ mechanically: a pure performance variant often carries different knuckles, hub geometry, and wheel ET clearance than the standard models, so parts that bolt onto one are not the parts that fit the other. Calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and brake lines ship as one matched system built to your confirmed trim. Modified knuckles, uprights, or non-factory suspension mounting points must be reviewed before ordering.
The 380 mm rotor sets the minimum wheel size at 19" — smaller wheels will not clear the caliper and rotor. Spoke profile and offset also affect clearance; confirm your exact wheels before ordering.
| Wheel Size (Standard) | Disc Range |

| 16" | 285 mm – 300 mm |
| 17" | 300 mm – 330 mm |
| 18" | 330 mm – 355 mm |
| 19" | 355 mm – 380 mm |
| 20" | 380 mm – 400 mm |

Why Carbon Ceramic — and Why StopFlex
Low Visible Dust
Matched with StopFlex pads, the system sheds a fraction of the dust an iron rotor and pad combination throws. Wheels stay clean for weeks of driving instead of days.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Finish
StopFlex's proprietary coating gives the disc a bright ceramic-glaze surface with subtle texture — the factory carbon-ceramic look, clearly visible through open wheel designs.
Continuous Fiber Construction
StopFlex discs are built with long continuous carbon fiber instead of chopped short fiber. Continuous strands carry load across the whole rotor body, raising strength and thermal durability under heat cycles.
Bespoke Per-Vehicle Engineering
Every order is machined to the confirmed vehicle and trim. Brackets, hat offsets, and pad shapes are built for that exact car — never pulled from a one-size-fits-all catalog.
CCB-Specific Pad Compound
A low-metallic resin pad compound reinforced with steel, copper, and aramid fiber, made for ceramic discs: stable to about 750 °C, roughly 0.44 average friction, strong fade resistance, low rotor wear.
Lower Unsprung Mass
A carbon-ceramic rotor weighs roughly half of the equivalent iron disc. Less rotating, unsprung mass lets the suspension follow broken pavement more cleanly and makes steering response noticeably sharper.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide friction matrix keeps working at temperatures that push iron rotors into heavy fade, so the tenth hard stop feels like the first — same pedal travel, same bite point.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Ceramic discs cannot flash-rust. After rain, a wash, or weeks of parking, the rotor face behind your open-spoke wheels stays clean — no orange ring on a freshly detailed car.
Long Street-Service Life
In normal road use with matched pads and correct bedding, one StopFlex CCB rotor set is engineered to outlast several sets of iron replacement rotors, recovering part of the up-front cost.
Winter & Cold-Weather Braking
Cold facts first: an untuned ceramic disc bites less than iron on a freezing morning — physics, not a defect. StopFlex tuned both the pad compound and the disc's ceramic coating for cold starts, so winter cold-car braking now feels very close to summer. Leave extra margin on the very coldest first stops; severe-climate daily drivers should build Street Spec.
Caliper Overview
Front Caliper
The front uses the AP Racing CP9560 Radi-CAL II 6-piston caliper, a stiff monobloc that keeps pad pressure even and pedal feel consistent as the 380mm rotor loads up under repeated stops.
Rear Caliper
The rear runs the AP Racing CP9541 Radi-CAL II 4-piston caliper on a matched 380mm rotor, adding real rear thermal capacity so the front axle isn't doing all the work on long descents or track sessions.
Choose Your Rotor: Street, Track-Day, or Motorsport
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.
Heat Management Note
High rotor temperature tolerance does not mean heat management disappears. Under repeated hard braking, heat migrates into the pads, brake fluid, seals, calipers, and wheels even when the ceramic disc itself is comfortable. Plan brake cooling and high-temperature fluid for extended track sessions, long mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving.

FAQ
Will this kit fit my exact Mk5 or Mk6 Golf?
We build each kit to your confirmed trim, not to the platform. Brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are cut for your specific car because a Golf R and a base Golf can differ in front upright, hub geometry, and wheel offset. We confirm your year, trim, and wheel details before anything is machined, so there is no guessing and no universal bolt-on assumption.
What wheels do I need to clear these brakes?
The front and rear rotors are both 380mm, so you need a minimum 19-inch wheel. Wheels under 19 inches will not clear the caliper and rotor, and spoke shape matters too—some 19s with deep concave or tight inner spokes still foul the AP Racing CP9560. Send us your wheel model and we'll check clearance before you order.
How do these behave in winter and cold weather?
A cold carbon-ceramic disc naturally bites a little less than cold iron on the very first stop—that's physics, not a fault. We tuned both the pad compound and the disc's ceramic coating for cold starts, so cold-car braking feel now comes very close to warm-weather feel. On the coldest first stops of the day, leave a little extra following distance and you'll be fine.
Why go carbon ceramic over the stock brakes on a tuned GTI or Golf R?
The factory front setup is a 312mm disc with single-piston sliders, which fades quickly once you add power and start doing repeat stops. This kit's 380mm carbon-ceramic front rotors with the 6-piston CP9560 hold their bite through hard use, shed heat faster, and cut rotating and unsprung weight. The pads are a carbon-ceramic-specific low-metallic compound with an average friction coefficient near 0.44 and heat resistance to about 750°C.
