You could always upgrade the rears too.

I did a decent search and ended up going for the rear S3 full upgrade. Calipers, discs, pads etc.

Stock GTI/ED30 rears have 286mm solid discs

S3 rear upgrade have 310mm VENTED discs, slightly larger pistons and slightly larger pads.

Including fitting I managed to source a set for £250 :cool:

If you are worried about adding weight, then the only options for upgrades are alloy calipers and 2 piece floating discs. The TAROX's on my car are actually lighter than the OEM fronts. :cool:
