13.2 rotor swap on 08 v6

I put GT rotors all the way around... (the back are the same on the v6 and gt)...
I had to change the caliper brackets on the front to make the bigger rotors fit on the front..
heres a pic of them on my car..

or are those the big 13.2 2012 GT rotors/caliper brackets
with those 17" OEM rims?
Can you even get the 13.4s inside the 17" OEM rims?
Easy way to remember the various sizes of GT rotors is:
12.4 starts the sequence with 13.2 next that is exactly
dead center of the 14" Brembo upgraded brakes.
12.4" 200-52009
13.2" 2012
14" BREMBO UPGRADE
Its an 8" jump each time...
It is 11.8" on the rear of all 2005-2009
and 11.5" for the V6 front rotors.
Thats a big jump from 11.5" front rotors to 13.2" front rotors
even with the same dual piston calipers and brake pad area.
The increased distance from the rotational axis really
gives you a lot more mechanical advantage.
