Bro, the problem is I don't find see many aftermarket brake rotors for the auto RX-8s, so you'll have to order the original 303mm brake rotors from a Mazda stockist or alternatively upgrade to the 323mm rotor and calipers. My advise is to go with the upgrade like what Adam did because not only will you increase your stopping power, it will also be easier to change the brake rotors in future because there are so many aftermarket brake rotors available. Since you already have bigger rims, it should be able to accommodate the bigger rotors and calipers (but pls check your rim offset, etc before you buy).

bigger calipers is a alternative

Oh.. haha... silly me :p Forgot you are back on 16" rims. So now your only option is to get new original 303mm brake rotors or like what cuscorex suggested, send your present rotors for skimming.
