Default Recommended Aftermarket Disc Brakes/Rims/Tires

I'm new here as you can see from my post count...I just bought my 2002 Audi A4 1.8T about a month ago, and I want to start doing a few modifications already. I have a budget, i'm 17 and work during the summer, so i'm limited in terms of the costs of parts.
Anyway, I want to replace the stock disc brakes/brake pads/ tires/ rims just to make it look more sporty and maybe add a little performance also (because that is always good). Where do you suggest I order my rims/tires from, and what are some good upgraded brake kits?


I'm a newb when it comes to modifying cars, since I've never done it before, but I really feel like I can do this my whole life and cars have been my passion my entire life. It's just that I finally purchased my own car and got my license so I can finally start doing what I truly love.


All comments welcome! Let me get your insight.

-Steve

brakes.
are u looking for a complete kit? then thats gonna be alot and less effective without WHOLE brake system upgrade.
u can upgrade to a b5 s4 front brakes (not that expensive)
Just get good rotors and good pads + good brake fluid.
wheels/tires. You can find wheels from $100 a piece to $5000, so whatever u like or can afford.

I want something that will display a sense of style as you look through the holes in the rims. Maybe some red calipers or something like that. How much will a full brake kit cost me?
