The direction of the slots and holes in the rotors doesn't matter as long as the ventilation lines in the rotors are in the correct direction.

You would have to buy Directionally Ventilated Rotors first. Most rotors you buy are straight ventilated rotors.

Rotora's are not Directionally Ventilated Rotors nor stock TL rotors.

i have rotora rotors and on the box it said to put them like the fronts are.

i put them on like the rears tho.. (slot like this / on the left side) cuz the pads will last longer and the braking difference isnt really noticeable anyway..

so bitium was right

btw, if u still dont believe me look at this, it's right off the rotora official website.. look at the 6th pic of the first column... it's the right front wheel...

@cUr@-TL
Yeap, those are ROTORA big brake kits, excellent performance, at a fraction of the cost of Brembo's...

The front direction is CORRECT. (On that WheelXperts picture) But the rear is not correct, but it's nominal.

most likely 18s... if you get a big brake kit, you MIGHT get away with keeping the 17s... i took a quick peek at my car (6MT) and there's approx and inch or so left... so it would be DAMN close...

Correct, but I guessed side blinkers were side markers.

^ i hear you, it gets confusing sometimes as to the terminology some people use... the lights on the side of our car (in the "line") are side markers, where the side blinker aka turn signal is in our headlights
