Default Re: Well... finally got my rotors in.

Once you de-grease them they should work wonderfully....
The rotors were actually starting to come through 2 boxes, but I think they probably couldn't pack it much better than they did. Bubble wrap might of helped a little.

They'll for sure be cleaned up before being put on. I can't imagine the pads working well with all the grease covering it, or for it being good for braking at all.

Still curious if anyone knows how much the stock rotors weigh.
