Default STFA'd and seems to be a mixed bag. Stassis XDR vs. ECS 2 piece rotors vs. pony up for
big brake kit. Maybe 1 track event per year. Also, do either company's rear brake kit truly change the bias so much as to be dangerous in street applications.

If you're only going to do one event per year, you can probably avoid a BBK.

Default And unless you're doing a BBK, don't bother with the upsized
rear rotors. Those are really intended for use with a BBK up front.

Default A8 rear rotors and carriers seem to improve the bias with stock fronts...
The ratio is closer to the RS4 bias. Its only ~$150 in factory parts.

A8 or S8? I can't recall, but know many people here have converted their rears.

Heard great things about Stasis XDR from my good friend who has them on his S4.

Default Stasis XDR
can't beat the thermal efficiency of an Alcon rotor...

Default STaSIS kit is perfect. No need to worry about a bias change
with the Alcon rotors front and rear on your S4. Call us if you would like to order as STaSIS does not sell direct.
