Default Front Rotors

I'm trying to order a new set of rotors but have hit a speed bump. I'm not sure what size I need and couldn't find anything in the manual specifying which size to get. My choices are 10.X" 11.X" and 12.X". I have a 2009 S40 2.4i fwd.

Thanks for you help.

Or if anyone can at least point me in the right direction to find out which size I need I'd appreciate it.

what size wheels do you have? I suspect the bigger disks won't fit under the smaller rims. Since the 09s did ship with 3 different size brakes, you probably need to measure. You can also try using the TASCAPARTS.COM web site and plug in your VIN. Given you have the 2.4i and not the T I suspect you either have the 278mm or 300mm and not the 320mm - but that's just my guess.

I figured the T5 would have the larger brakes.

I have the 17" wheels.
