just looking into replacing the stock brake discs with some slotted and dimpled discs. already powder coated the callipers red and they look great on my gun metal grey VRX. any ideas with brands of discs? also whats the diameter of front and rear discs? would it be any problem replacing the rear discs cause they are half drum?

The lancer GTS/VRX has 11.6-in. (294 mm) vented discs in front and 11.9-in. (302 mm) solid discs in rear.

I would suggest DBA or RDA rotors, you wont have a problem with the rear disc because they will ask for model of the car and should have straight replacements for them, so dont worry about the drum for the handbrake. I Just dont know if they have released them for the Lancer yet.

RDA have them released in normal, slotted or grooved and dimpled for the CJ Lancer. DBA when I checked in early March had nothing.
