Why Audi S4 / RS5 Brakes Need an Upgrade

Factory brakes on the Audi S4 / RS5 are engineered for normal street driving - moderate speeds, light loads, and occasional hard stops. Push beyond that envelope with track days, towing, off-road use, or repeated spirited driving, and pad fade, rotor warp, and excessive dust become the limiting factors.

Ghost Brakes addresses all three failure modes with a matched rotor-and-pad system: drilled and slotted rotors for heat evacuation, GEOMET coating for corrosion resistance, and carbon ceramic pads for stable friction under heat and 60% less dust than OEM.
