    Quick Question

    Sorry, I’m a newer to this car stuff, but I just ordered a set of drill slotted brakes and rotors for my 93 325. However I don’t see the 6mm Allen hole on them. Are these the right rotors?

    Hello and welcome to the forum Barrett! I'm not sure that I understand your question. What is the allen hole in regards to the cross drilled and slotted rotors? Are you able to post or link a photo of what you're inquiring about?

    Are you referring to the set screw holding the rotor to the hub?

    That screw isn't absolutely necessary, some cars don't have them. It does help ensure that the holes on the rotor will always be aligned with the hub however so it makes putting your wheels on less of a headache on lug bolt cars.

    I havent seen a set of rotors without the set screw hole. As far as I know, its securing the rotor to the hub so you may want to have that screw in there. The screws are cheap but you may need to exchange those for the right set.
