as far as i know all the RST Regency brakes came with a bigger rotor but the caliper and brake pads were still stock from the factory.

I believe the RST'S run a HD caliper up front. I remember reading the stock brake pads don't fit. Read through the RST sicky. Its in there somewhere.

Anything before 05 uses the standard 1500 pads. 05 and up it is a toss up between the 1500 and the hd setup, but all rst's used a oem size pads on the front.

The rotors are either baer or ssbc depending on what year you have. The calipers and pads are oem.

They have a Baer Eradispeed kit or an SSBC kit as previously mentioned. All it is is a caliper relocation bracket coupled with a larger rotor. Caliper and pad is stock

Is there a way just to buy new rotors or can I run a SSBC rotor if I have Baer's?

You can call baer and get the part numbers for the front (14" eradispeed 2 piece) and rears (13" 1 piece), but the last time I called they wanted $200 per rotor. So I went back to stock.

Thanks. I guess I could get the stock size front and rears, but cross drilled and slotted? That should work right?
