    Hi Shane,

    Haven't given it much thought regarding Arteon calipers, but I do have red calipers on my other car which has similar colour wheels and they look good on that.

    cheers!

    Our brake calipers are the ugliest i have ever seen. The new model has the R blue brakes which we should have had from the start

    Not just the calipers, even the front discs look proportionally small. They work, but they don’y look good. At least 245mm next time, please VW!!!!

    The front rotors are 340mm (front) and 310mm (rear) (both vented).
    Before the MQB Platform, the front rotors where actually 345mm on V6 etc.

    I am sure you don't want 245mm rotors...

    Haha, you are right. My R36 had 345s I think. Would’ve been nice if the Arteon had the same or bigger.

    Got the same combo you have mate and the stage 1 APR tune.
    Curious to see What's your review on the TVS software?

    The TVS tune has made the gear selection and responsiveness much better than standard, changes are quicker, can be driven in normal mode without laboring the engine.
    Has more benefits in daily driving than the APR tune.
