I didn't like them, nor trust them even at low speed driving.
(curiously though, the same brakes on my 200q20v felt great on the street)

Anyway, someone with ready access to a Euro FA can correct me if I'm wrong, 
but I don't think the UrS4/S6 ever had G60's in Europe.

For the UrS4's, I'm not exactly sure what the content was, I'm guessing 
they started with UFO's and at some point converted to the "HP60" 4-pad 
caliper (same or similar to what is on some A8's and S4tt's)

I'm pretty sure the UrS6's all had the "HP60" , not sure what the rotor 
size was either (that is a big one!)


Cheers,
Keith
