Rotor Rivets
Hey folks, I did a search on rotor rivets, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. I pulled my wheels off, and I don't see conventional rivets, instead, I see some metal things about the size of a dime in the spot where the rivets should be. Are these the rivets? If so, do I just drill in the middle of these things to get them out?

Yes, just drill the center with a carbide bit. The 'dime' cover is bigger than the shaft that goes through the rotor, though. So start with a smaller size bit. I forget the exact size I used. Some just fell right off, but some were stubborn. But once I was into it a good bit, I just tapped them out with a hammer and small screwdriver. :smash:
