I've got a B6 with a B5 S4 caliper upgrade and I'm thinking about putting on a used set of 18" Avus from a B6 S4. I need to know if they'll fit without spaceers.

Thanks.

Default Since when are the B5 brakes and upgrade for the B6? That sounds strange.
I always thought that the B6 had better brakes.

He has an '02 1.8T. The B6 S4 has better brakes.

Default It's a great upgrade!
B6 (excluding the new S4) are pretty wimpy. B5 S4 Lucas calipers are a direct bolt on and gives terrific results. They haul the car down nicely.
