Brake discs Textar or GiroDisc
My shop uses Textar and Zimmerman coated rotors with great results.
Pros: great results
Don't have experience with RS models, but we've used Textar brand rotors and pads for our Q5 twice and they're fantastic. Textar is an OEM supplier to Audi. The last set lasted us 90k Km and the bite/behaviour was the same as the original brakes.
Pros: fantastic, same as original
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mileage: 90000 km
Sendo que na oficina de multimarcas local o orçamento com discos da textar fizeram por 318€ preço com mão de obra incluída.
GiroDisc 2 piece rotors. Excellent weight saving and stopping power.
Pros: excellent stopping power
Cons: weight saving
Vehicle:
Mitsubishi
I rebuilt the RS3 calipers in Lapiz Blue and ended up using TT-RS Girodisc rotors due to the Golf R hub being a slightly different offset. Great pedal feel!
Pros: Great pedal feel
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
As others have noted the Girodisc with quality track pads, upgraded brake fluid and RS3 ducts is all that is needed.
Pros: great reputation
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
S2000 1 piece oem rotors last 2 weekends
Girodisc s2000 oem size 2 piece rotors lasted me almost 2 years of heavy tracking. They only died because my hawk er1 pads took a chunk out of one. They still had plenty of thickness
Pros: long lasting, durable
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
Girodisc rotors are awesome and well proven across many vehicle brands.
Pros: awesome, well proven
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I'd buy a set of Girodisc rotors. They will last 10 times longer than crap audi rotors.
Pros: last 10 times longer
Cons: crap audi rotors
Vehicle:
Audi
Be careful with the Textar rotors. They're made in China, I had used them for years when they released but the warranty frequency rate was over double what I had with Zimmermann. Switched back and the come backs dropped back to normal. Made in Germany ftw.
Pros: Made in Germany
Cons: high warranty rate
