Rotor Compatibility?
Hey this might be a long-shot, but a local shop is clearing a set of Brembo XD/Slotted Rotors for an 05-08 Tacoma.
I am wondering where I can look-up the dimensions for these to compare them to the 13" Cobra Rotors for a BBK?
I think that the Bolt pattern is 5x114.3 if that helps any.

even tho the rotor had the same bolt pattern, the offset of the rotor can make your brake swap sour. Example: 13" Cobra rotor and 6th gen rotors. Cobra rotor has the same bolt pattern as a Nissan, but the holes are larger and the offset makes the rotor move outward. 6th gen rotors are more inboard.
I tried to mount a Z32 caliper w/ Jeff brackets on my 3rd. gen and it didnt clear the rims. ( Had to use Infiniti J30 calipers) I have a friend who also has a 6th gen. We mounted my rims on his car and there was no clearance issues. We even mocked up the Z32 caliper and it cleared also. A look at the cobra rotor showed that it had a different offset compared to a Nissan Rotor.
