I believe rotors are pretty much universal as long as they are the same bolt pattern.

well you have to rember the caliper. larger disk means your going to have to move the calaper futher from the center of the hub. so long debate if x-drilled or slotted really changes anything. if you want a change get 4 wheel disk and ss lines. those give the biggest improvement. i currently have x-drilled brembo's they are great, slotted are going to kill your breaks faster since they shave the surface down when you use them.

search around and pick whats best for you.

drilled rotors crack easyier.

It really depends on your brake pads if slotted/drilled would make much of a difference over flat ones. My slotted rotors brake just as good as my stock ones untill you really step on it and they start to get heat in them

If you're concerned about the "show" quality, you DEFINATELY want to lower your car or it will looks like crap no matter how good the rims are, and no matter what size they are.

sort of seems more crappy lowered... the wheels seem to make the car messed up... sort of seems like some grand national

Trust us.. when you add bigger rims to a car it makes the gap between the wheel and body look muchmuch bigger and crappy.... lower it.

That's because you photoshopped it incorrectly, your photoshop does look more crappy.
