| Jason... you would need a huge amount of work to fit them to your car.. custom carriers, custom pads and a custom bell+rotor.  You would be definately running into brembo territory with those.

| Thanks.  I think its best off sticking with VAG then... I have the hub part numbers needed now, but don't know anything about the parts for the calipers/carrier/discs.
