14" wheel brake options....

Ok this is actually on a 1998 Legacy but seeing as how the only section I could find on this site was for imprezas, and they're basically all the same... here goes.

I have factory 14" alloys on my leg, which I think gives me the slightly smaller 260mm rotor... or somewhere around that size. Whereas the dude at advanced auto parts gave me no fuss about finding the proper size, I'd rather have something better and I'm not so sure about everywhere else. Like on tirerack.com for example they make no reference to whether or not the brembo blanks are for 14", 15/16", or if they have both. So if I can find some decent rotors... (front btw) what do you think the odds are of me finding some of those with coated hats? I'm stuck with the smallest brakes ever made unless somebody feels bad for me and wants to sell me some stock 16" + tires for cheap :-D
