Frequently asked questions.
Q. Will a brake upgrade fit under my Transporter wheels?
We always confirm caliper and disc clearance up front against your specific wheel, tyre and ride-height setup before any work begins.
Q. Do you offer caliper paint refresh?
Yes — full strip, prep and refinish in your chosen colour using proper high-temperature paint for long-term durability on a working van.
Q. What pads do you recommend on a Transporter?
It depends on use — daily driving, towing, camper conversions and fast-road vans all have different ideal pad compounds. We advise based on how your van is actually used.
Q. Are brake upgrades really worth it on a VW Transporter?
On loaded, camper-converted or towing Transporters — absolutely. You get better fade resistance, more confident pedal feel and longer pad and disc life.
