Car up in the air.... Brake question... HELP !!!! lol

[X5Andrew]

Ok so I started on the brakes today and realized the guy might have sent me the wrong rotors... D'oh. Here are the two pics... drilled brembos are the new ones... but they are missing a couple of holes for some kind of guide pins.

My question is, can I just line up the oldones and drill the holes myself?

They seem to line up otherwise.

i wouldn't chance it by drilling it myself. chances are correctly manufactured rotor hats are heat treated/hardened/or have some process applied to them after all the drilling/milling is done.

you need those dowel holes. i would suggest you get the correct rotors instead.

Get the correct parts, and do the job right.

Abort, your X-drilled rotors are late (07/00 on) and your X has pre 07/00 rotors. You gotta get the correct ones. They only used the rotors on your car for about 10 months of production so they maybe harder to find in X-drilled.

Do you know if the rears have changed in those years?

Going to return these, the guy says he has the correct fronts for me.

Thanks guys.
