I got a set of front & rears from Clark Motorsport circ £1760. Worth remembering that of you do only the front the discs won't match front to rear as AP's have alloy bells. Personally that would have bothered me hence i went the whole hog.

Do they make any difference to yours or do they feel pretty much the same and don't suppose you have any pics of them fitted ?

AP Racing front discs with good quality pads like the Ferodo DS2500 (or even the more extreme Pagid rs29's) with good quality fluid like ATE Type 200, Castrol SRF etc are amazing!

My AP story is that I had AP fronts, DS2500's and ATE SuperBlue and that combo stopped me from 170mph to 20mph 49 times in a row without fading once (charity passenger rides day) plus another 10+ trackdays without issue.

For the rears it makes "less" noticeable difference but, as they're almost the same price as OEM, why not get a set, plus it'll make the front/rears match :D

Here's a pic of mine after 20k miles, 10+ trackdays and abuse! The dark ring is the pad material after a hard day :D

Hi all,

New to the forum but was wondering the same thing about discs so thought I'd jump in here..

I've noticed that the 2013 RS6 (C7?) has got 'wavy' discs. These are about £700 off eBay, anyone know if they fit or if they are any good?

EDIT: Never mind.. found the answer here: https://www.tapatalk.com/topic/118897-20930

In short, the answer is no, they don't fit.

hi guys,

I wondering if AP front discs are different( 1 left and 1 right) as the original are the same ( 1 ref for both side) meaning one side is ok, but the other is in the wrong "way".

Thanks.

Which is why I'll be going to AP when I need to change them - the Audi discs set my OCD going.
