I just recently bought my A4 and I am looking to do some brake upgrades. I like the BIRA stage one setup, however I want to make sure that it will fit over my stock Sport wheels. I looked on their page and I only saw listings for '99 and 2000 wheels but I have a hard time believing no one has tried to run this kit with earlier wheels. Will the BIRA stage 1 kit fit over my stock wheels?

I recall seeing a link to a personal page listing the brake specs for A4s, S4s, and TTs, but I couldn't find it again. Not having much luck with the search functions on this site. I'd like to mix and match to upgrade the rear brakes if I can. Can anyone help me out?

Also, can someone tell me what "ET35" and "ET45" refer too? Offset? Sorry for the ignorance.

Thanks in advance for the help!

You need to run spacers to fit the BIRA under the older style 16" wheels

BIRA has a template on their website... doesn't fit OEM 5-spokes

...otherwise, you can use spacers with your OEs or buy a wheel from their fitment list; most 17" wheels will fit System 1.
