Something with huge brakes! Why would you need that size rear discs?

Probably redrilled S4 rear discs. Dave B on ukmkivs will be the man to speak to as I think it's his conversion. Did you get this off a lad on ukmkivs?

Nothing bigger than 256mm is needed really, all you will do is upset the brake balance.
