SHW's AFX41156 retains the RS3's 370mm factory-size architecture while using a lightweight drilled/dimpled pin-drive design. The rear stays simple and durable with SHW's smooth 310mm monobloc rotor, paired with Brembo Prime low-metallic pads front and rear for strong factory-style response. Direct replacement sizing for the factory steel-brake 8V RS3 Lightweight SHW front rotor design with drilled/dimpled friction rings Smooth SHW rear rotors for OEM-style rear braking behavior Brembo Prime standard pads for factory-like bite and pedal feel Bill's TakeThis is the 8V RS3 setup I would use when you want to keep the factory 370mm brake package but replace the expensive front rotors with a proper SHW performance option. The drilled/dimpled fronts are the centerpiece, while the smooth rears and Brembo Prime pads keep the rest of the package straightforward and street-friendly. Shipping and InstallationThis is a heavy brake kit and may ship in multiple boxes. Approximate combined packaged component weight is 93 lb. Professional installation and proper pad/rotor bedding are recommended. Confirm the vehicle is equipped with factory steel front brakes before opening or installing components.
