R56 Rotor question

Can anyone confirm what size the front rotors are on a 2007 MCS non-JCW??

Specifically, I'm looking at the Centric High Carbon 125 series, but have found conflicting information from various online stores when it comes to the model that fits my car. The 294mm rotors (125.34101) seem to fit the JCW's, but possibly not the non-JCW although that is the model listed on TireRack for my car. The other models that some stores claim fit are 276mm (125.34099) and 280mm (125.34100).

- Cooper S 294mm

We have the rotors here: Gen 2 R56 Model for 2007

R56 2007 MCS - Non JCW Rotors : 11.57" ( 294mm x 22mm ) fronts

R56 2007 MCS - Non JCW : 10.19" (259x10) Rear

&

R56 2007 MCS - JCW : 12.44" (316mmx22mm) fronts

R56 2007 MCS - JCW : 11.02" (280x10) Rear


Click Here for rotors.


http://www.ecstuning.com/Mini-2007-Cooper-R56-S-Coupe-L4_1.6L_N14B16A/Braking/Rotors/


We carry the ECS Geomet Rotors in Cross Drilled and Slotted and Slotted:





&





We also carry Zimmerman, Meyle, and Genine MINI dependent on model.





My only other guess is that the first Gen JCW Drilled / Slotted 34116777826 which is JCW 07/01/2006- for first gen is Non JCW for second gen Cooper S : 11.57" (294x22).

Thanks and I hope that helps.

Funny you should ask - I just ordered a pair of front 125 series rotors off Amazon for my '08 MCS. Fronts are 294x22mm.

The part # was: 125.34101
The price was: $39.80 each, free shipping.

Just checked Amazon and price was 46.95+13.00 shipping. Could you post a link of the better deal.

Can't find that seller anymore, but googling "centric 125.34101" yielded the following $35.84 listing as link #2:

There may be other better deals out there, but either way, it's a good deal.

Thanks! Amazon was of course one of the sites that was confusing me. Based on the description listed in their "fits your car" section, the 125.34100s were the right fit. So thanks to everyone here, I can confidently order the right ones when I see that great price again!

As a general point - always do your own homework and validate that the part you are buying will fit your car.
I've been to numerous very reputable auto supplier sites that had misleading "fits your car" information. Usually, erring on the side of a false negative: "wont fit" when in fact it would and did. False positives are the ones that can really spoil your day when you go wrenching.

Just another "caveat emptor" public service announcement.
