Brake Discs 4.6is

I wonder if you guys know where I can buy aftermarket front Discs for a 4,6is. Preferably Drilled or Grooved at a good price.

Yeah, I have used the infamous ''search function''

I only find discs for the 3.0 & 4.4i........

Does anyone know for sure if there is a difference in the rear discs between 4.4 vs 4.6/4.8is??

4.4 and 4.6/8 have the same rear discs, different fronts, both vented

the 3.0 has the same size rears as the others but they're not vented

Try Tirerack. They don't list a front rotor for the 4.6is, but Luke there has been able to get a lot of stuff not listed on their site. (888)541-1777, ext 362 for Luke. He's a good guy and a die hard enthusiast.

Ok, great, so the rear discs are the same as the 4.4. That makes it easy to find drilled rear discs.

I've been checking ebay and most other places for front discs for the 4.6is but its not much out there. I want drilled, or drilled/grooved.

Thanx, Phil....

They have what I need, although, a bit pricey @ 420$ + freight.. Thats about the price for discs for my F-car....
