you talking about just pads....or a different rotors..or full BBK??

I have stoptech's...they are probably the cheapest in terms of the BBK... But have little clearance if your looking for new wheels... Alcons are very nice...

When I do brakes I kind of want a full brake job (BBK if I can find for a good price), but I will settle for performance rotors/performance pads. Any recommendations for either?? Links would be sweet

yea im kinda open to anything.... i got the B7 rs4 rims and would still like something BBK that fits under stock S4 rims for winter driving. I might settle for pads and rotors also but if theres a decently priced kit i may venture out into that.

just buy stock stuff, it's cheap & will work perfectly.

SS lines make a huge pedal feel difference!

The S4 brake setup is great as is, upgrade the rotors and pads and you'll definitely be impressed, not to mention the SS

go for pads and rotor upgrade
