Slotted Rotors Direction
HI
I bought a set of rear slotted rotors for my 93 Ruby Red, there were not L or R stamped on them - Does anyone know which ways the slots are supposed to point ?
Thanks

From what I've seen some manufactures face the slots one way and others the other way.
What really matters are the vanes cast into the rotor. They should face the same way that the sawblades (wheels) do. You want the vanes facing the back of the car.

Maybe you'll know, I'll have to look at it when I get home.

The direction of the slots don't matter. Various manufacturers do it differently.
