                  and 32 or 34mm thickness. 30mm is too thin really.

                        I think prices have changed slightly.

                          Don't bother with drilled or groved, no need for it.

                            are the turbo calipers not to big for 323x30? i suppose as long as pads are changed early enough the pistons won't pop out lol
