Caliper size (Need help)

Does the 35is and the 35i have the same size calipers?
Considering MGP caliper covers and didn't want to order the wrong size.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I think it's different, I parked my 35i beside my buddy's is, and his disk is noticeably larger than mine, my guess is that the caliper would be larger too.

Thanks for the advice.

That website says that calipers are the same.

Your both right.

US spec 35i have smaller brakes then US spec 35iS, as mentioned.

However, Euro spec 35i and 35iS both use the same, larger calipers/rotors as the US spec 35is.
