Thank you for your response.

Since you are one to err on the side of caution, would you replace both? (since you said "should be okay" instead of "it will be okay").

I found 2 used RS3s from a friend of mine, both used on the same car.
He advised it should last at least one track day. I'm thinking of putting those 2 used ones are in the time being until I find a set of new ones (or very lightly used ones)

Sorry for all the questions.
