I can't remember the rotor sizes offhand, but they're not rare at all.

I absolutely LOVE my Baer brakes. I am no longer in fear of driving & stopping my car.
I bought mine through Lingenfelter, they gave me the best price with shipping.

Okfoz, which setup did you go with? I'd also like to know what kind of deal (rough estimate is fine) you got from LPE compared to a place like thunder-racing. If you do not wish to disclose the price info no prob; I'll understand. Thanks
