Baer brakes is a possibility.

I think it is them that makes a 17 in. rotor that would work and look nice.

It all depends on your budget and what size wheels you want to run. If you want massive wheels (24s or bigger) I'd go with larger, slotted or cross drilled rotors. If you have the money, you should go with bigger calipers but it gets high $. I have Powerslot rotors and I love em. Hawk brake pads are a good choice for pads. Baer brakes make good stuff too.
