Message	Here are some before and after pictures of the OEM and the larger braker rotor. I don't have any emperical data on the improvement of braking from the larger rotor, but I did four hard stops (until the point at which I started losing tire traction with the pavement) from 50mph to 0mph and the front tires didn't seem to lose traction as easily as they used to, so it seems the rears are doing more work now (though this could be a placebo effect lol). In any case, the leverage provided by the larger sized rotor, logically, has to contribute more braking to the rear, though. And let's not forget how much better that larger rotor fills my 18" wheel :D Anyway, I'm rambling...on to the pictures:
