The most common brake shoes for the Volkswagen Beetle, Karmann Ghia and VW Thing are, in addition to A quality, also available in B quality. In fact, the term B-quality is not quite appropriate, these products are also of very good quality and are not much inferior to the original. If you choose quality A, you choose the original that no brake shoe can compete with, but if you choose quality B, we support it 100%, but you will have to sacrifice on lifetime.
Additional note : If you opt for lower quality parts it is for one reason only: the price tag. We can understand that, but do not forget that when you compromise on quality for brake parts you more or less also compromise on safety! This is a choice you have to make yourself, bearing in mind that you can never hold the seller liable.
To get a good overview, under the tab other models, not only the quality B is mentioned, but also all other models (which are only available in quality A). The A quality of this set can be found under the "alternatives" tab.
Warning :
No brake shoe in our range contains the banned and carcinogenic material asbestos. Keep in mind that your old brake shoes may contain this. Don't get exposed to asbestos and take precautions.
