Hi Robin.
They'll work well on the back of the S3 setup, wouldn't worry too much about the plain discs. I like the DS2500 it ticks a lot of boxes but just makes a mess when they go off.

I am having these fitted 335 rotors TVr -AP- calipers and DS2500 pads to replace the 312/single pot set up on my Leon Fr.

what would be a sensible rear set up with brisk road work in mind?

Speaking only from the experience of having similar size front brakes on my Mk5 GTI (AP Racing 4-pot with DS2500's) and oem rear brakes and pads, I wouldn't put changing or modding your rear brakes high on your list of priorities. I'm changing to S3 rears now but have done about 50,000 miles with AP fronts and stock rear brakes on all sorts of roads and journeys and without any cause for alarm.
