RE: TAP homepage / Audi 1.8t tuning options



I wonder if they use Alcon or AP racing brakes since the super touring A4 
has the same size brakes and they are Alcon brakes. The brake pads are 
Performance Friction Carbon Metallic pads. It's kind of make you think 
what size wheels you are going to need for brakes of the diameter 
(According to Racecar Engineering magazine, the supertouring A4 uses 19" OZ 
racing wheels).
