Brake upgrade and stock wheels

Does anyone know of a brake upgrade that fits with the stock wheels? I'm not too keen on spacers but want stronger calipers.

I'm sure those will be cheap too... But at least it's something. Any idea when?

I just found out the smaller Stoptech kit doesn't fit either. I don't understand as the wheel appears to have plenty of room around the stock calipers. I know Stoptech kits fit stock Audi wheels and those are much tighter.
