Default front brake rotor size?

Does anyone know the size of the front brake rotors on a '90 2.3L? I went to autozone and there's 2 different sizes, the guy couldn't find what size, so I was like ok, went home, took the wheel off and can't read any #s off the rotor because they're so old you can't see the numbers. So does anyone know what size the fornt brake rotors are for a '90 2.3l? The reason I'm replacing mine is because you step on the brakes and the front does nothing but wobble, rotors on now are warped majorly! Thanks!

The brake rotor that you need is part #5432. I work at an Autozone store. The 256mm diameter rotor is for the 2.3 cars. The 278mm rotor is for the V8 cars. I hope that this information helps you out.

I figured the bigger ones were for the 5.0s but wasn't sure. Was sitting here thinking why would there be 2 different sizes for the same car, the 2.3s? But hey thanks a bunch man! And how is it down there in Mustang, OK? My dad lives in Lawton. That's where I lived before moving up here where we have that white stuff up here called snow
