Default bigger rotors for EP3??

Anyone know a co. that makes bigger front rotors for the EP3? I just need bigger rotors, not a whole big brake pkg. Preferrably 300 or 320mm rotors and 4-lug. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the response Migs. I already knew about StopTech, but i don't know which rotors to get. They have the 1 piece bigger rotor with a couple different sizes, then they have the 2-piece aerorotor that comes in a bunch of different sizes. I just don't know which would fit my car. Guess i'll call StopTech and see what they have to say. Thanks again
P.S.-I DON'T WANT A BIG BRAKE KIT! JUST BIGGER ROTORS

Right, but I think with proper pads and fluid, you shouldnt have any issues anyways.

RJ - who thinks RJ and GK should stop agreeing on things

I like parts that perform and look great, usually, regardless of the price.

I think if they look good, then its an additional selling point. I bought some rota's last year for track use, happy with them and they looked damn good
