Default Time for new brakes.

And no I don't want a BBK, but I would like drilled rotors and a good set of low dust performance pads, and maybe SS lines. I hope to stay in the $500 to $800 range and increase the braking and looks.

Who makes drilled rotors for both the front and rear of the B6? What about pads?

Unless your tracking the car, i say Drilled is overkill...just adds weak spots to the rotors

Track and autox a little, but I must admit I like the look.

Default slotted make better track rotors that drilled. drilled is for looks.

the only rotors with holes that are track worthy are the blanks that have the holes cast into the rotor when they are made. Very few rotors are done like that.

Weight reduction too, but they wear faster.
