Default Gen 5 rotor size

Whats up MCF community?
I was going to do my pads and rotors (who ever serviced the car put on garbage pads and should have done the rotors), and was puzzled that they suggest two rotor sizes for the 95MC. 267mm which = 10.5 inches, and 286mm which is 11.25 inches. Can anyone vouch that is safe to use the larger rotors, because the brakes need all the help they can get I'd like to use the larger rotor size. Thanks!

C'mon the Gen 5 guys don't do their own brakes? Oh well I'm going to get the larger ones, I don't think they'd offer the size if it didn't fit, I'll update on what size rotors are currently in now and if there is a noticeable difference.

edit:

you need to just measure the ones you have, if you install the larger rotors your caliper might not fit due to the enlarged rotor. but due to some research via the web it seems the larger ones are for the front, smaller ones for the rear for those with 4 wheel disc brakes
