There may still be a need for aftermarket brakes.
Even the RS6 drilled disks look small with the 19" wheels.
There should be room for more performance!

Did you know that you can buy fake brake disks?
Does anyone know what they look like?
I kind of hope you don't have a link for such a company... ;)
but if you know anyone who makes them let me know.
Would be interesting to see.

The 18" to compare with.

Anyone buying winter tyres for the beast yet? :D Good luck!

19" on a red RS6 saloon, these disks are not drilled.

100-0 km/h in 39.0 m (cold) 39.1 (warm).
200-0 km/h in 157.3 m (warm)

As tested by Sport Auto.

Eric,

the top picture is of the rear disc and caliper.. the fronts are 8 pots as I'm sure you are aware.

The brakes are one of the most impressive parts of the car.. it's a heavy car and they pull it up brilliantly... almost too well.... you have to check in your mirror before someone rear ends you :D

I haven't had any fade yet... mind you.. not really pushed them too much yet.. just bedding them in.

Dave
PS.. I have 19" alloys with drilled discs.... looks the biz :D
