Which Rotors?
I have a 92 convertible and it's time for new rear break rotors. I see Eckler's and NetVet's have them for $59.00 each. I'm not sure which ones I need, though: standard or heavy duty?
Your thoughts? Also, are these rotors worth buying? I like the price, but not if the value is poor.
Thanks,
Chuck

The difference between Heavy Duty 13" and standard 12" are on the fronts only.
The rears are the same from `88-`96, no matter what the fronts are.

I guess it helps if I read the post doesn't it?!

Thanks for your help. So all rear rotors are the same, cool. Now short of pulling the front rotors and measuring them, how do I know which size I have there? Is there an RPO code I can check?
