OP Robb_dup1 New CEG\'er R Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 45 Bourbonais Illinois	Are there bigger rotors available for the 9 CSVT ? I have done a quick search but it never shows anything. I just want a larger rotor to fill the space behind the rim .. I think it looks dumb with alot of space behind therim with little tiny rotors . any help is appreciated .

The TCE website has bigger rotors, but also requires different calipers. Baer also has a kit (as does BAT). If you are in it only for the bling I believe the Baer kit is the lowest cost. If you want real man's brakes then get the Wilwood kit from TCE. Last edited by Hdbngr8; 01/26/06 06:17 PM. '98 SVT Red/midnight blue - a few mods E0 wheels for sale - PM me

So I cannot just find bigger rotors without braking the bank.. no pun intended Not really. As mentioned the Focus setup is the 'cheapest' 'big' brake kit. The rotors are 300mm IIRC. *Ryan* Trollin!
