David,
I don't know the exact measurements but I haven't noticed any difference, there may be 1mm or so. If it's a concern I would email Tarox who I'm sure will give exact specs.

I had discs quoted for my Audi RS6 which was over £300 per disc (as I want genuine discs) plus 2 hours labour each axle (my pads were metal to metal). I am from Alton, Hampshire and managed to get all my discs skimmed at R&M Commercials in Basingstoke which only cost me £240 including vat. Saved me over £1000 :D . Will probably need new discs on the next time I change the pads though :( . Really good if you want to save a bit of money. http://www.randmcommercials.co.uk.

There is not many companies around my area that skim discs. Now going to do some engine tuning I think :)

You might be better off asking in the relevant forum (you don't even state which RS6 you have) rather than in a thread about rs4 rear discs.

Hi Andy,
They have been good although I haven't had chance to test them as of yet, just typical Road use (maybe sometimes a little fast road). I work out of the country so have only covered about 200 miles with them on so far. I'm happy with them in terms of performance and looks. I believe they were £688.80 or something like that delivered directly to from Tarox. There was a UK dealer offering free shipping at the time which saved about £8 but I opted for going direct and paying the extra few quid.
