I know this is an old thread, but did you put these on to replace the original oem 2 piece floating discs?
Yes these were used with the OEM front '2-piece floating-caliper' and rear fixed-caliper' replacing OEM single-piece discs and pads like so:
And I'm still mega happy with the arrangement
Note that ALL four 8R OEM brake discs are 1-piece and not 'floating.'

Thanks for the reply. My oem discs are 2 piece floating, but I can't see a reason why these will not work as the dimensions are the same?
Looks like I have exactly the same calipers. Mine is a 2017 8R. Someone with an A8 (same brakes) has told me it is a straight swap.
Ours is a March 2016 build, not sure it helps
For sure here's a good place to start and will provide A8 data also: https://audi.7zap.com/en/rdw/
