I am thinking of upgrading the brakes on my A3 to S3 brakes. I've recently upgraded to 17" alloys and would like to know of any potential hiccups for this upgrade. In short, will it be a straight upgrade or other stuff might be involved as well.

For reference, I've got alloys with part number: 8P0601025AL
 
Pics of your alloys please.
I have put 17s over my S3 brakes and it works perfectly fine but some 17s need spacers to clear the calipers
 
i just put S3 brakes on mine (all 4), and was a straight swap, only thing didnt fit were the 2 rear dust guards. mines came from an R32.

Also i have same alloys!
