Just my opinion for what it's worth.  I have held suspension with 13" rotors on my G28.  They are incredibly heavy.  Unless you are racing I don't see a need for them.  I kind of hate faking things even though my car is a fake, but if I were doing it over again I might consider the fake rotors and calipers just for the appearance.  10" rotors behind 20" wheels definitely don't look right.

They need some material ground off to make clearance since they are so much wider than oem. Notice in the last pic how the top of the spindle fits in the control arm? Its much wider and will hit on the corners when the wheels turn left/right.  I built the control arms but it should be the same situation with the fiero arms.
$200+ shipping.

I built a set of front spindles for the fiero that I no longer need. They use C6 bearings, 14" rotors and brembo calipers. There's a little bit of work left to finish them but nothing major.
