RZ or RS model come with bigger front and rear disks as standard.  314 or 315mm if I remember correctly.
What make are these disks?  I\'d steer away from unknown " high quality" disks personally.

Nop JJ is right Pete. Rz\'s had bigger discs but they were only available from dealers so the ones on yours atm may not be Mazda discs :)

RS\'s on 17" rims have 314mm disks. Rare as rocking horse sh*t. Only available from Mazda I believe. Very expensive
 I have been round this one with Clive who was advertising replacement disks and I was hoping he had 314mm ones. Nope

 PS. 16" wheels don\'t fit on cars with 314mm disks. The rims touch the calipers. Been there !!!
