Default Brake rotor question

I have a set of brake rotors, Raybestos BR5500l ,BR5500r.
Now I know left and right, but are they front or rear?
The Raybestos web site is no help.

Is there a front and rear difference?
Also, mine are drilled and slotted

Those #s come up fronts.

Rears have holes to adjust the parking brake shoes, and are slightly different offset.
