However, the US A8 did indeed have 314mm rotors so you may want to ask the A8 list.  That's not to say that someone on this list may not have a worn set of 314mm A8 rotors as those are used on some of the brake conversions, along with Porsche calipers, used by some folks on the list.

Bob,
those were 312mm and rather underwhelming... to say the least.
