Reviews & Ratings

  • Includes all components for a disc brake upgrade.

The Empi Zero Offset Wide Five Disc Brake Kit is the ideal solution for upgrading your pre-1965 VW with standard drum brake spindles (King and Link Pin models). This kit delivers the superior stopping power of disc brakes while retaining compatibility with your favourite 15" 5/205 wheels no adaptors needed.

Designed for a seamless fit, the kit maintains a near zero offset, ensuring no loss of tire clearance, with only a minimal +8mm change on models up to 1957. The complete package includes 5/205 discs, calipers with pads, caliper brackets, a single circuit master cylinder, brake hoses, wheel bearings, seals, and all necessary fitting hardware. Please note, this kit is not compatible with drop spindles and is intended for use with stock-style drum brake spindles only.

Product Questions

Are the brake pads supplied in this kit asbestos free?
Australian Customs and Border Force have a zero tolerance policy on goods containing asbestos.
Question by: Dougal Wilson on 27 Nov 2023, 7:44 am
Hi Dougal asbestos, was taken out of pads and exhaust products over 25 years ago, in the modern world, 100% no asbestos
Answer by: Rob Baxter (Admin) on 27 Nov 2023, 8:27 am
Thanks Rob. Australian authorities require importers (commercial and private) to conduct sufficient due diligence to confirm products do not contain asbestos. I'd rather ask the question than cop a $180,000AUD fine.
Question by: Dougal Wilson on 27 Nov 2023, 9:18 am
Hi Dougal

Pads have not had Asbestos in them for over 25 years, I can assure you they haven't and we sell to Australia these all the time
