Default 13" factory brakes

Does anyone know if 13" rotors were put on the JK's?

Picked up a spare Dana 30 and went to change over the brakes when I noticed that they were bigger.

My 08 Dana 30 has 11 3/4 rotors and this one has 13" rotors with calipers. The calipers bolt up fine, but before I swap I would like to know if I can source parts.

The 13" set look to have factory stamping on them.....even look the exact same, only bigger...

Any thoughts?

Hi

The JK in Australia have 13" , then I thought that Europe and South Africa also have 13" but the dont, they also have 11 3/4.

In Australia they can not fit 15" or maybe even 16" rims.

Best regards from Sweden

Thats correct down here in Australia we can't fit anything under a 17 inch rim. Which makes tyre costing a fair bit more expensive than anything you can get on a 16 inch rim.
Cheers.
