    Been running the DBA 288mm slotted rotors for a little while now and just recently added Remsa pads. For a street setup I think this is all you would need for a Polo TSI as you are not going as fast as a twincharger and you are going to be like 100kg lighter. If doing track work I would recommend getting better pads.

    Just got the DBA4838 T3 one piece rotors on the front with Remsa pads fitted For the rears I used Bosch DB767 and Remsa pads also. Fantastic combination for the road!

    so did you fit the 312mm rotors?

    VW states they are 310mmx 25 mm, did you get any interference fit?

    I don't think that -1mm between the edge of the rotor and the caliper will cause any issue. They're not in there with zero clearance to begin with.
