Grab some early fpv calipers, the discs are 32mm thick and 325mm in diameter. These are the best low price upgrade.

I was thinking $500 for the lot for a local buyer? They've just kinda been sitting there. I was bummed one got the brake fluid on it, it doesn't look as good as the other.

The rotors are fine.
