No, they are smaller than the 6th gen Rotors.

Define "Fit"



The bolt pattern is the same.

And if you can manage to get the brackets of the 4th gen calipers to fit on your car too (account for the bolt size difference) then the calipers will work also.

So yes 4th gen Rotors will fit on your vehicle.

Will it work w/o some forethought? No.

Why do you want 4th gen brakes on your 6th gen? There are reasons, but only apply to 1% of 6th genners out there.

Sell the rotors in the 4th gen classifieds, buy new rotors.

Yeah you're not the 1%.

Goto autozone and buy rotors and call it a day.
