The 32mm rotors are far more warp resistant.Unfortunately, you need different calipers.......Get yourself some BA premium callipers and rotors for the front. You can't go wrong.

It made a huge difference in stopping distance and consistancy. You won't be disappointed with DBA"s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e. are these the same C6 calipers used in the premo package? Would equal around $380 aussie?http://www.kore3.com/proddetail.php?prod=10126-04Also see link above by wasxaman Cheers.
