Any opinions on the APR Complete Level 1 Brake Kits. I'm thinking of upgrading from stock.

IMO, your $625 is better spent on the A8 upgrade (mind you, it's only for the fronts). If your rears don't <b>really</b> need replacing, then do them when they do need it ($60 for two rotors, $50 for pads...not bad).

You won't notice a difference between OEM and the slotted rotors, but might notice a bit firmer pedal due to the lines. I think you WILL notice more of a difference with the A8 upgrade. If your rear rotors and pads are in dire need of replacement, then the APR kit is a viable option. However, the rears do much less braking than the fronts, so likely they're ok. I've got 95K on my original rear rotors and they're still going strong. Hope this helps. Good luck
