Rear Rotor Bolt Replacement

InceptionBW · 11-27-2019, 07:20 PM

Hey guys, where can I get a replacement 6mm bolt that secures the rotor in the passenger rear super quick? I've stripped mine and in urgent need of another. Also, is it possible to drive without it, seeing how the wheel bolts should secure the rotor as well. Thanks

I got some from ECS. They sell stainless steel set screws, which can't rust in place. You can drive without them. Their purpose is to hold the rotor secure to the hub while you're putting the wheel back on. Once the wheel is on the rotor set screw doesn't do anything.
