Default Finished brakes and wheels and tires this weekend!
Completed entire brake job this weekend. Rotors, pads and painted calipers. All OEM parts. Liked the feel of OEM and stuck with it. Also Mr. Press was kind enough to part with his OEM RS6 rims and tires so they were installed for the summer! Car now handles AND stops much better. Next mod is to eliminate the Allroad look and lower this baby. Just haven't figured out how I want to do it.

Kind of hard to see the calipers but they are shiny.

Once the pollen clears, a detail day and she will be ready for summer!
