quattro. Ceramic isn't nearly as delicate in the break-in as kevlar.

Default fwiw all the opinions I asked about the rs4 said it wouldnt hold up to large ko4 power and launches
so i then went with kevlar..I didnt go as far as ceramic because VAST didnt recommend it for my driving, which is mostly ripping up onramps..sometimes a track ..maybe once every 3 months

but you cant go wrong with either so good luck
