    Beats the heck out of dealer $400ea prices. Add it up...thats a 600 dollar savings on 4 rotors.

    Add to that the EBC Reds all 4 corners for 175 and you save another 400 on a 4 wheel brake job over the dealer.

    2hrs topps to do the job and plenty of beer money in the bank where it should be.

    I will second GEN XER's rotor purchase, I purchased a new set of rear rotors, delivered for $500, they arrived in two days after purchase. I would highly recommed Kyle at fastvwaudiparts@yahoo.com . He E-mailed me a thank you the other day and said he is ordering more RS6 rotors as he was out. I told him to definitley order more as I'll order another set of rears (I already have two new front sets) and that others on the list were bound to order if he could keep these prices. I also have a 225bhp tt and told him I would look for other Audi parts for both Audi's.

    Now's a good time to buy UK, dollar's strong right now(cooling kit should be $150-200). Prepare for a long wait on the SS brake lines as ECS lists items as available, but ALWAYS on backorder.

    I will have them mounted tomorrow if all goes well. Lets hope there are no fitment issues. If there are some metal has to be shaved. LOL. From the looks of the shoulder tread I don't think I'm going to have a problem. It is not blocked squarely, it is rounded and tapers downward as it goes into the sidewall. The shoulders actually look like the Michelin's

    GEN XER,
    SS lines took a little over 4 months. No prob if you're not really in a rush. I waited 'til I got the lines and replaced the front rotors, painted the calipers and installed the brake cooling kit.

    I just got my SS brake lines installed last week after a 10 days of waiting to receive them here in UAE. I got them from ECS tuning --> link here
