Re: what do you need to know? if you run RS4 replicas, you will need spacers.
the detail spec , pricing and braking feel.
i'm using 19inch wheel with spacers now.

I think cross drilled rotors and a decent set of pads is more than 90% of people need
Yes better braking can be had with a bbk, but if you don't track your car, you sure as hell don't need it for a daily commute. I am putting on cross drilled rotors this winter and am going to get some track pads for the track events this spring. I am assuming that will be plenty. If I start to see serious brake fade, I will start looking into bbks, but probably not before then.

Had to get my SL3's rebuilt to fit them, and used 5mm spacers to clear my 17x8 ET 35 Fliks
You need to have at least 22mm backspacing to clear the calipers. I had my SL3's rebuilt so that I could have 25mm spacing.
