The Audi s3 has alloy hubs but the same fitment

Believe it or not even though they're off Audis finest they're not worth a fortune in any way.

don't forget the calipers don't come with brackets so technically they're not as useful as say a set from a RS5 or RS4, the R8 front wheels are 9.5" wide so consequently theres enough room for a rugby match behind there OEM....unfortunately that means they will happily go on a Mk5 platform car but you'll need spacers to get your wheel back on of approximately 16-17mm

the calipers have a value but Jonny has some at brake caliper refurbs for £800 in the colour of your choice with a full hydraulic service which would be nearly £300 for the paint and service alone

I'd focus on the calipers disregard the discs (theyre not expensive to buy from TPS and have no value 2nd hand [R8 owners don't need to buy second hand brake discs]) and if you get them cheap either sell them for TTRS calipers or if the rears are available get them instead and put them with some R32 discs for a really great pedal and cheap consumables

£700 for some that have been freshly sprayed, rs4 discs but not sure what brackets

Been offered some Porsche 986 brakes as well but need brackets for them and been offered a lot of ttrs set ups but does the 370mm ttrs discs fit

I pm'd you as well Dave
