In Reply to: Big Red Rotor vs. BMW Euro Rotor posted by Scott on February 11, 2000 at 18:56:18:

Just installed a set of Euro rotors on my M coupe today. They looked great, but I am not sure about the performance of them. Also installed a set of Porterfield R4-S pads. Should be better than OE BMW pads.

Question1 : If I have rust on the piston, is the piston bad, screwed up, leaking ...

Question 2: How tight should I torque the bolts that hold the caliper to the strut?

Question 3: Is the Euro rotor a true "floating" or "multi-piece" rotor?

Question 4: I noticed that in inside the Euro rotors were shaved on one side, is that for balancing?

Thanks

Ray
