What do you mean by how big. Without some sort of kit, you will not be able to fit a larger diameter rotor. I dont believe there is a wider rotor available that would fit either. Please clairfy

As for your question about slotted or drilled or both? It depends. What are you planning to do with your car. If it is a daily driver and only a daily driver, neither. If you plan to track or do some really spirited driving, go slotted.

As I understand it, drilled has a disadvantage. I hear that after heavy use, you'll start to see cracks right by the holes. I just upgraded my rotors and I decided that I was not going to go with drilled rotors. Just slotted only.
