Default North American source for a 288x15 rotor?

I am working on a brake conversion for another german automobile, and i really want to use a set of 288x15 rotors found on some european A4s (and other models, i assume). Are there places in north america that can get these? Also, since brembo makes these rotors, can any brembo dealer get these?

Thanks,
-Damon

Default Thanks for the link, but...

I appreciate the URL, but that is where i found the rotor in the first place :-). My question was more about where to buy those rotors in north america. The 288x15 rotor seems only to be specc'd on european Audis. Is there someone who specializes in euro-spec Audis?

Thanks for the reply, though!

Default 2 decent places to check

http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?form_cat_id=49&amp;action=category

a pretty solid catalog online but the prices are not the cheapest.

http://www.prosystembrakes.com

pretty helpful sales guys that deal in brembo only. mostly nascar/ bush truck stuff. I found them because they have tons TONS of alcon stuff on clearance but they dont deal with alcon anymore.

fyi you need to know what you are looking for when you call these guys. brembo part # or mesuremnts something they can work with. other wise you are just wasting their time. so don't call them with a oem part number because they will have no idea what you are talking about.

so if you have hats (assuming a 2 pieces set up because thats all these places deal with)and or the size and offset of the rotor ring you need they should be able to help.
