Upgrade the front braking performance of your Audi with the DBA DB2186XP Xtreme Performance front brake pads. Designed for selected Audi A4, A5, A6, A7 and Q5 models with compatible TRW front brake calipers, these DBA XP pads are built for drivers who need higher friction, stronger initial bite and consistent braking performance from low to high temperatures.

DBA Xtreme Performance brake pads are developed for demanding street performance, fast road, heavy-duty and club track day applications. The DB2186XP compound provides a stable and confident braking feel, making it a strong match for upgraded brake discs such as DBA T2, DBA 4000 Series T3 and DBA 5000 Series rotors.

Using a semi-metallic carbon fibre friction material, the DBA XP range delivers G-G Class friction with an average 0.45μ friction level across a wide temperature range. This gives the driver strong pedal response, excellent braking consistency and reliable high-temperature performance up to 550°C.

For best stopping performance, DBA recommends pairing Xtreme Performance brake pads with DBA T3 slotted rotors from the 4000 Series or 5000 Series. On compatible Audi applications, the DB2186XP is an excellent performance pad upgrade for drivers who want more braking confidence without moving to a full race-only compound.
