Well, my trusty '89 200 Quattro needs new rear brakes. Pads, rotors,
calipers, the whole deal. I'm probably going to get the parts from
Blaufergnugen, but as of yet, I haven't decided which way to go. So,
I'm looking for thoughts from my fellow listers. There is only one
choice for calipers, as I need the bracket. Pads, however, I could
use stock, or either of the two semi-metallic that Blau offers. As
for rotors, there is stock, and grooved. Would it be a problem
upgrading the rear brakes to the better semi-metallic pads and
grooved rotors if I'm not doing the fronts right now (they are still
50% or better)? I'm a little concerned with throwing off the brake
bias. When the fronts go, I plan on using the good stuff up there.
There's no such thing as too much brakes. All comments are welcome
and appreciated.
