Need new pads, does any one know a good uprated pad disc combo that will do me until I get 6 or 8 pots?

On the RS4, Jon, 4 - pots are all you will ever need, as long as they are Movits [img]images/graemlins/bluegrab.gif[/img]

The AP Racing set up is as good and cheaper as long as your not going to track your car every day, although as with all brakes the better they are at high speed stopping the worse they are when they are cold. At -20C they are all crap!!!! [img]images/graemlins/29428-red4.gif[/img]

\ap racing are designed for err Racing not for everyday use, some RS4 owners are finding this out, that the day to day tempratures that brakes see are not what AP are designed to deal with.
Sorry Chubby but i wouldnt reccomend them to anyone with a RS4.
Cheers

Fully agree with point, although they work bloody well when warmed up, but now I've got the new rims I am looking into the Movit 6's!! [img]images/graemlins/29428-red4.gif[/img]
