Default Am I the only one annoyed by the oversized brake pedal

Am I the only one that noticed this? It seems like it is always in the way or maybe there just isn't that much room to the right of the gas. I have large feet ( size 13) maybe its just me.

Maybe you should trade it in for a 6 speed. It may have a smaller brake pedal to compensate for the 3 pedal

I noticed the same thing, not much room between the gas and brake. I had to get used to placing my feet "just so" to prevent hitting both pedals at once.

I was actually pondering cutting a 1/2 inch off the right side of the brake pedal but the issue has become less noticeable as more miles go by.

yup...

RS5 pedals here, although they look to be about the same size as stock: http://oemplus.com/index.php?main_pa...oducts_id=1013

aftermarket pedals here, brake pedal looks narrower...learned about them here on AW or AZ: http://www.srpracing.com/pd-a4s4-0208.cfm

edit: do a search on the S4 B8 forum on AZ for "srpracing" - there are a few threads talking about pedals and alternatives. one in particular: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...ight=srpracing
