What kind of brakes did you replace? The new rotors look smaller to me, or at least the swept area appears to have been reduced. But I'm by no means a brake expert.

Stock calipers with Hawk Pads and Rotoworks Drilled/Slotted rotors were replaced. Can't wait to get these out and get them bedded but the weather in Houston sux this weekend.

U'll love them. Baer's customer support was awesome, but make sure they send you the right caliper brackets (the part in black on my caliper) as for the 13" rotors they have to have a bigger one to reach the mounts, but they overnighted me ones to replace their goof. Let me know if you need any advise when you go to install them.
