S8 is ONE piece steel rotor.........probably double the weight of the RS4 rotor

too bad they don't just sell the rotor ring and re-use the aluminum hats.

I think this is B.S.

We need to get a letter out to Audi complaining about this brake rotor wear issue, and then the cash grab as well. Who's with me?

one thing is clear that you need to look for an alternative - either used spare parts or high-quality fakes
