I've gone down the road by using Reyland discs around with Ferodo DS2500s at the front with Ferodo Premier at the rear.

 

On the road there awesome mate. :up_it:

i know someone selling some rear j hook 310mm bolted reyland discs. So you’d only need to source the front discs.

The Revo set up are rebranded Alcons.

The fixed 2 piece Reylands are in my mind a good cost effective upgrade mate.

Btw the J hook rears mention by Jay are a set I've got up for sale due to another Reyland disc upgrade PM me for details if intrested.

Why not get Dells discs and sell your standards on? Or better still keep them for as of when you return to standard.

The fully floating fronts are £750 & £550 for fixed.The rears are £510.

I'm in the process of fitting the rear 350mm kit which costs £650 + P&P mate.

Does that price include the caliper brackets Dell?

Are they RS6 rears so you need a 57mm spigot ring or have made disks to fit without the need for one
Audi RS3 8P 2011: Phantom Black, Retrofit genuine Audi black grille. Mods: Milltek Decat pipes, Bilstein B16 Coilovers with 034 Motorsport top mounts. Superpro front control arms, Powerflex Gearbox & Dogbone mount inserts, 034 Motorsport Rear ARB, 034 Motorsport Front & Rear Drop Links. Reyland 370mm front brake rotors.
