If I wasn't buying another house I would jump on these, probably. Ben, if your out there, I got your PM. I'm out of the country and will be gone until the last week of April.

Thinking about it, but only If I can get my RS6 Brakes to fit on the Allroad.......

So these would fit our cars without a major headache?

Thanks Mark, I was starting to wonder.

Is there a write up on how to install these?
Doesn't the caliper need to shift up 35mm or a proportional amount?

I'll be doing all 4 RS6 calipers on the allroad sometime in the next 4-6 weeks. But the kicker is I am using RS6 uprights which has the proper offset. The allroad uprights dont have enough offset and the rotor actually rubs on the upright. So, the RS6 front calipers will fit on allroad upright but you have to deal with the rotor issue. Let me know you want details when I am done.

Why would the RS6 need a brake upgrade anyway? We already have 8 piston Brembos to start off.

I agree...just adding more unnecessary weight, for not a lot more stopping power.....

No personal experience here, but those who have done the Mod have stated a significant improvement in stopping power. It's done quite a bit in the UK where the C6 stuff is readily available. I wanted to do the mod myself, but the cost of the Kit and shipping (Very Heavy) put it out of my reach. I have to admit though the 2Bennet rotor and pad setup that I have is more than sufficient to bring this baby to a halt when called upon.....................

I have worn out rotors on mine all the way around, and the other day for the first time while driving my RS6, I needed to stop......I never had any other car stop as quickly and cleanly as when I mashed down the pedal in this car. If I wasn't wearing my seat belt I would at least have had bruises from the steering wheel.

But they have been relisted for those of you that hate your money.
