Which car do the GiroDisc Front Rotors for C6 Audi RS6 fit?

The GiroDisc Front Rotors for C6 Audi RS6 are listed by GiroDisc for the RS6 of the C6 generation, with the 5.0-liter twin-turbo V10. GiroDisc does not publish further fitment detail for this part, so send us the VIN and we will confirm it before ordering.

What is the benefit of a two-piece front rotor on a C6 RS6?

The iron friction ring is separate from a reusable aluminum hat. When the iron wears, only rings need replacing, and the floating mount lets the ring expand with heat on its drive pins. GiroDisc rotors also generally weigh less than the one-piece discs they replace.

When should the RS6 front rings be replaced?

Replace them once they reach the minimum thickness marked on the hat and the ring edge, or if a crack runs to the outer edge of a ring. Contact us for the matching GiroDisc replacement rings, which bolt to the existing hats with new hardware.

Are the C6 RS6 front rotors noisy when cold?

No. GiroDisc fits anti-noise spring washers on the ring side of each drive pin. They let the iron grow as it heats but remove the rattle that floating rotors can make when cold, so the RS6 stays quiet in everyday driving and around town.

Should the C6 RS6 front rotors be bedded in?

Yes. GiroDisc recommends a bed-in procedure for any new disc. Bed the rotors in with a series of progressively firmer stops from moderate speed, then drive gently to let them cool, before using the full performance of the car on a fast road or track.

Description

GiroDisc Front Rotors for C6 Audi RS6

GiroDisc’s Front Rotors for C6 Audi RS6 bring the company’s two-piece floating construction to the V10-powered super wagon and sedan. A cast iron ring floats on a 6061-T6 aluminum hat, so when the friction surface is worn only the iron needs replacing. The C6 RS6 is heavy and fast, and an owner who uses that performance hard will appreciate front rotors built around replaceable rings and curved-vane cooling.

Construction

GiroDisc casts its rings from proprietary high-carbon iron, poured in the USA and machined in-house in Bellingham, Washington. Curved vanes act as a centrifugal pump, pushing air from the hub out through the disc. The Front Rotors for C6 Audi RS6 ride on cadmium-plated alloy steel drive pins with anti-noise spring washers that stop cold rattle.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
