'02 Rotors on V6 - different from SE/LE to XLE?

Hi Folks,
Curious situtation - I'm hoping a Toyota pro could put my mind at ease. I'm about to turn the front rotors and decided to at least pursue some options for replacing them with a set of performance rotors. My last hope appeared to be Powerslot. Unfortunately, they don't offer rotors for the XLE V6 - just the SE and LE. This makes no sense to me - does Toyota really change the design of the front brakes for the XLE over the other two models offering the V6 engine? I've been assured it's a design issue, not a problem with wheel fitment or anything like that. Bizarre.
I was ready to do the work last weekend until I saw the axle nut. So...once I'm able to find a 30mm 12-point socket, I'll finally get down to business. :)
Take care,
Jerry
