Rear Brake Discs

Post by paulsf » Sat Sep 20, 2008 8:09 am

Right, I've seen the discussions about these before on here and S2Forum and I understand the issues. I have Porsche non floating discs on the front with no issues so I want to go the same way with the rear to avoid Audis' hideous mark up. What I need to know therefore is what are the correct part numbers for the Porsche discs which are a direct swap (I've seen a variety of numbers quoted hence the question)?

Alternatively are there any recommended pattern discs that work just as well?

i have bought aftermarket rear discs from a shop on ebay.de called ultimot.de.They also have a web page.The discs were drilled and so far have turned out to be fine.I dont think it is worth paying so large amount for the audi/porsche original discs.
What im going to do with my front discs as well is get them from this shop(around 450euro a pair) and have them cryogenically treated so as to increase their life span.It has been done before and it has proven a good method.

Paul,

The rear discs are expensive whichever way you look at them. Have you spoken to VagParts yet?
