Caliper mounts and calipers are different. The hats may have to be fabbed due to the mounting position of the calipers... Can fit, but requires a custon fab setup properly to make it work as it should..

If you hit a rock, and the rotor shatters, good luck buying another..

If it's a street car, just put big reds and call it a day.. You can always use a different pad compound..

If you're talking about the ceramic rotor brakes, the replacement cost for rotors is around $8000 and they don't hold up to racing or rocks.

if they were at a good price and not damaged then id buy them and work out the details later. even if you didnt fit them youd probably be able to sell them again without difficulty. i think most of the large braking manufacturers are developing ceramic disks for more generalised consumption, cant wait till they do, great way to loose some unsprung weight!
