is it size+oem that warp or is the reason because of the size only?

I dont know if anyone will knwo the answer 100%, but the standard 330mm disks are the same design as the standard 305's, & the pistons arent any bigger in the calipers - just the calipers are physically bigger to go with the disks, so Id say its the size thats the issue.
