Alcons are no better than Stoptechs and the pad choice is pathetic. Def not a "move up".
With the B7 S4 you need to replace the brake lines, the stock ones are too short to reach. Other than that, it's a bolt on.

ok, thanks. I was going through archives and saw a few of ur posts debating if S8 and 332 front...
makes the car rear biased or not, some argued it does, some not (including you)...
So, a bit confused... looks like A8 rotor might be the best compromise!
BTW, was joking about Stasis

Well you're set with excellent Alcons up front. I don't think the rears...
matter much. Personally if I had the cash to burn, I'd put on Alcon rear rotors just so the front/rear match! But that's really just for looks. Put on any decent aftermarket rotors in the rear and you'll be fine.
