I use the AEM big rotor kit that i bought off ebay for 200$ brand new limited black edition.
Had to upgrade to 16" rims in order to fit them.
One of the things I would like to say is, dont listen to all them people who say, " dont upgrade brakes because it only stops you!". I still went with big rotors on my 01 civic coupe. These brakes are awesome. I feel as if I got the most gain in my brakes than any other part I bought. If you do change brakes to nice ones, get good brake pads also because that will double the advantage.

If anyone is planning on getting the black aem rotors(discontinued), remember that the rotors wont stay black because once you use it, it will turn goldish color. I like that better than pure black though. You can see them.
Trust me though, get new brakes instead of buying used because they can be warped. My stock ones were warped and caused me to shake the steering wheel whenever i braked.
Id advise that if your brakes are fine, save some money and go with a different mod.
