I ddint like the normal steel rear brake on my RS5 , Ceramic in front and steel in the rear did not look so nice .

So i took one 370 MM Ceramic from the S7 .Its very easy to Install

By any chance are the front ceramic rotors compatible with the older (C5/USA) RS6? Hmmmm!

Great. Do you have some more pictures of your car from distance, to see how it looks like when wheels are on.

Kind Regards

i undersrand it does not look good, but given theinvestment and knowing that 80% of the braking takes place in the front, looks like a no go to me... I've changes many mnay things on my RS5 (people on this forum know this), but this has never ben even somethign I've considered
