Nothing on the Mtec website for any RS3's but I am liking the gold coating they offer :)

Sticking with the black wheels for now Roy while I save up for some 20" Vossen's 😊

Although Mr HMRC was nice to me in my tax return this year so they may be sooner than expected lol

MTEC are Β£97.99 a pair - 10% offer at the minute.

Did I see you can get 2 identical now?
Which hand is it for the correct drill pattern direction? Did you order them over the phone to get 2 drilled the same?

Well Mtec have got back to me as below:

 

"Hi 

Thanks for your query
There seems to be conflicting information on the rear discs for your model on the catalouges
Would this be the disc fitment you require as below
 
Solid / Vented: Vented
Disc Diameter: 310mm
Disc Thickness: 22mm
Overall Height: 48mm
Mountings: 5
Centre Diameter: 65mm

Minimum Thickness: 20mm"

 

Are they 310 x 22 as T800 says above?

 

TX.

 

Edit - is it just a straight swap disc for disc with all else as OEM RS3?

Paul I got 2 discs the same, I emailed and asked if I could have 2 left discs with the holes going from the centre outwards clockwise.
They confirmed by sending me a picture showing their discs and that was it.
Don't forget to add the anti corrosion costing too.

I have rear brackets for the RS3 these move the standard callipers out to allow the rs6 c6 rear discs to fit if anyone would be interested?

Does this have any impact on the bias of the brakes or just for the looks??

I must admit the MTec drilled discs i had on the MK1 didn't show any signs of rust.

 

Looking good Styxz..............
