Hi all,
I hope I'm not recycling an old post here,
but here goes....
I'm looking to upgrade my front brakes as I'm about to stick 20" Rotiforms on her and the standard brakes will look inferior, and it'd also be nice to have a little more braking power,can't hurt!
And I've been looking at a few options....
S4/S5 Brakes
RS3/4/5 Brakes
Audi A8 Brakes.
Now bare with me on the A8 ones, I'll get back to them, as far as S4/S5 & The RS brakes if I buy the calipers does anyone know if they're a straight switch? I understand the S and RS models are 345mm and 360mm respectively. And with the caliper size too I'm sure they'll look the business.
I've seen a few posts on different forums but no one seems to give a definitive answer. Do I need new caliper carriers or will they just straight switch?
Now with the A8...The new ones have monstrous calipers, and these accommodate 380mm front discs.
I know. Its sickening, but they would look great and probably have the capability to tear my eyes from their sockets if need be! Hence why I'm also inquiring about these. Anyone know if these will straight swap (If I find a pair at a decent price!)
Cheers, Dan
