Thanks!
wait a few weeks i wanna put it thru a couple tests in nj/nyc tommorow, so i wanna see how the wear is and if the brake fluid drops. I rarely use my brakes in normal driving, and this is a good chance.

The caliper piston is the same size, so the brake fluid isn't gooign to be affected in any way.

Bigger (diameter or heavier) rotors will effect the cars overall performance. Putting bigger rotors on is the reverse installing lighter wheels, flywheel or an under-drive pulley. It is also an increase in unsprung weight, which effects handling.

But a change like this will not make a discernible difference on the street - except to those that have the oversensitive but-dyno - but it would show up on the dyno and in lap times (a very small time change) at the track. While it can slow the cars acceleration down, being able to repeated stop from high speed could pay off in the long run.

The weight increase is the reason a lot of big brake kits use a two-piece rotor with an aluminum hat. Better stopping without adding weight, win, win.

UPDATE: abused in the city traffic and almost crashed 4 times (the FDR and Maj Deegan pisses me off sometimes) brakes are wearing evenly and I can use less effort to brake hard lol. No issues at all.

After seeing this,

I went to have a look at my front brakes as well..

Indeed the brake dust cover is a tad larger than the stock rotors =D

So, just to be clear the Corolla brake setup is the same as the XD right? car-parts does show corolla when you search the XD.
