Yeah it says that it comes without pads. This seems like a good deal but I dont think i can front 300 bucks for some new rotors quite yet..

you'll still be using the stock A4 caliper and pads. they will cover the area of the new rotors, except maybe 1-2mm on the inside. it's well worth the upgrade IMHO. i got hawk HPS pads from ebay for 89 shipped and i gotta say, i have zero trouble stopping when i really need to. great for the winter because you can use the front brakes coupled with some throttle and steering to start a drift lol

i have those right now pretty cheap, i built my own kit but finding a wrecked tt and grabbing teh carrier for 30 because guy didnt know what they were worth, the ebc rotors sent me back about 150, but still worth it. if your gonna fork over that much though look in the classified someone was selling a rpi equipped 4 pot caliper and rotor setup for 300.
