I'm working from a failing memory, but I notice nobody else has responded. I think it's 11" front, 10" rear. I notice your sig indicates 18" wheels. I think the rotors look lost inside the 17" wheels. Are you thinking replacement?

I own a coupe and I am looking for a replacement system. I just got new wheels and the design leaves the brake system wide open and easily noticable. Looks outright ugly with the stock setup. However I am trying to go a different route than Brembo because I am not looking to spend 2k+ for brakes when I would only be using them for visual apperance rather than performance. Any ideas on a company that might fit that criteria? Maybe just a replacement of the rotors(slotted/cross drilled)?

Regards,
Matt

I think for around $700 you can get the C32 rotors, pads, and calipers. Buellwinkle knows the dealer to order them through. Not sure if it will work on back but i don't see why it wouldnt. If you have 18's, you should have no problem with those.

Stock is 11.8"vented rotors in front and 11.4" in back. If you get larger rotors you need to change the calipers too, they are designed to work as a set.
