Of course I look at the back side of the rotor and the ball joint. But you know what's more important to check for evidence of rubbing than the steel body of the ball joint? The dust boot on the ball joint which sits ever so slightly closer to the rotor is actually the first thing that would make contact with the rotor and probably tear the boot or leave it heavily marked.
I'm not using S4 rotors, I'm using 993 rotors. I'm not '85/'86 spindles, I'm using the early spindles from '80 or '81.

Burning Brakes
On my 81 the stock front brakes were pathic , fred flintstone had better braking . The s3 brakes were good , then I saw that the car hung on the front ball joint ,very scary . So I changed to S4 front suspension and GTS brakes BIG diffrence .
