Backwards? Looks okay to me... I think...

Here's what my install looked like:

looks good to me

how would you even put your rotors on backwards? the only thing that looks diff is that the holes are going the other way than woshiagni's.

[Eye8Pussies]

doesn't matter which way the holes are or what not....just supposed to be over some vents in your discs....

Well if you have slots on the rotor, you shouldn't reverse it because it'll push the dust back into the center or the rotor, which defeats the purpose of using slots.

I Have My Brembo's Mounted In The Same Direction

^ so according to ekam's post, and looking at woshiagni's pic (assuming that's the driver's side front caliper), you have your rotor on the wrong side...

I dunno if Brembo's have directional slotting, but they should offer that.

And for smokey880 rotor, it looks like you have it on the wrong side as well, assuming that that is a pic of your passenger side front caliper.

The outside, leading hole or slot (the first hole or first part of slot) touches the beake pad first. Thats what I heard.

Anyone notice how some of the holes are going in the opposite direction as all the others? It's not supposed to be like that and might throw off the balance of the rotor. Brembo doesnt cross-drill there rotors, so it looks like someone messed up. Are they both like that?

[smokey8890]

i sent a pic to brembo and the told me it was suppose to look that way. i guess i thought it would look more like woshiagni

[woshiagni]

I have Brembo blanks, but the drilling/slotting was not done by Brembo. At the time I bought these (early/mid 2002), Brembo did not make crossdrilled or slotted (or both) rotors for the Camry.

If I had your rotors, and they came straight from Brembo, I would install and use them without hesitation.
