400x40mm Movit Ceramics - came off my old C5 RS6 and are beyond awesome. Some 7kg lighter per corner too (combined saving for both disc and caliper) and a very tight fit, with no more than 2mm clearance between the caliper and the inside rim of the wheel. In fact I needed to get these wheels instead of the split-rim BBS Speedlines that were on it originally, as there was insufficient clearance. Recent trackday at Bedford proved that they never fade and continue to stop the car harder than you'd ever imagine. Ultimately however, you eventually have to come in as they will put so much heat into the tyre that the pressures rise too much and then it gets all slidey, so there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.... Very good fun though.

In terms of stealth, come on chaps, how much more stealthy can an S4 be? It looks identical to any of the TDI S-Lines that fill most of the company carparks in the Thames Valley and I nearly tried to unlock another blokes car than was parked 2 away from mine in the Membury services a while back. Same Black Edition setup, same wheels, same colour, just making 200bhp less and burning miserable chip-fat instead of V-Power. That's stealthy enough for me....
Yeah, those 400mm 'ramics make it blend in, effortlessly.
No matter where you go, there you are.
