No.
I believe the carrier brackets are different to accommodate the different size rotors.

This setup is slightly better than stock. I like the mintex pads a little better than OE pads. The rotors are the same as stock.


To put vented rotors on a car with non-vented rotors you will need new carriers, calipers, as well as rotors. If you have 16 inch wheels I suggest skipping the 286mm upgrade and going right to the 300mm upgrade.

i realize i'm a couple days late on this... are the prices still good?

i have 15's (stock active) wheels for the winter, so i won't be going to a bigger brake set up. just wanted to see if i could get away with the vented rotor without other work involved, but that's not the case so i'll pass.
