    No way I would trust a website that is listing brake rotor size based on your model car, or on wheel size...too many ways to get it wrong...sadly...

    And it costs about $35 for each bracket to remount the calipers, so if you wanted to upgrade your brakes to 12" (305mm) rotors, this is a really easy thing to do, and ordering rotors is the right time to do it...all you need buy to upgrade is those brackets (same calipers, different location) and the 12" rotors along with your new pads.

    I get Brembo rotors, been very happy with their service life (nearly 90K miles on the XC with Akebono Euro pads). Pads are up to you. Akebono are great, very quiet, no dust, good performance. There are higher performance pad materials out there...but they all dust...
