you should just get the xg359 calipers, the bolt right up. then you get 05 kia spectra rotors. The calipers are dual piston, and the rotors are 2" bigger i believe. they'll cost a lot less and give you more than enough clamping power.

Get the XG350s up front. They will look awesome and be great for breaking. For a lot cheaper to. I think they will work in back also. Im going to be swapping my back over I think even though it wont be a big difference. Then Im getting all the dot3 out of there and moving to soemthing better.
Rotorpros can get you a good deal and they are great rotors. Rich is an awesome guy to work with.

Rich at rotorpros gave me a offer for 4 rotor,,,2rear and 2 front with black coating with shipping to norway for 380USD .it´s a lot but the dollar are low these days.. that will cost me around 2000NOK (norwegian crown)..and thats cheap for me..1.rotor fra a hyundai dealer costs over 1000NOK each..and they are not slotted and drilled like rotorpros once.
But i still need new brake pads..i were thinking about those Hawk pads...and i need caliper rebuild kits or 4 new calipers + ebrake cables.
i was thinking about mediablasting the calipers to get all the surface rust away and paint them black,but i need to rebuild them also.. and the rear calipers ,my ebrakes are a complete mess.i have burned my rear rotors and pads twice because af them and rusty ebrake wires.. seems to be that others have problems with them too. can some recommend a website to a firm with ok prices for rebuild kits or new calipers in usa?
i have sent Rich at rotorpros a new mail..same setup but without the painting and just slotted.maybe the price will go down a bit then...time will show.
Any pattern you would like zinc silver plated only for $355. Thanks
from Rich rotorpros..well thats cheaper
