GiroDisc two-piece floating rear rotors for the Audi TT RS (8J). The rotors are a direct replacement for the OE disc and bolt on to work with the OE calipers, with no modifications needed. Fitting lightweight replacements rather than a big brake kit maintains the factory brake bias and ABS efficiency.
