Rotor Install Question
Just received my rotors in the mail, and have installed three so far. Problem I have noticed is that the left front rotor rubs up against the caliper holder. It does not do this the whole rotation, just certain points. Will this correct itself once I put the tire on or will this persist? I tried taking the caliper off and repositioning the rotor, but it still rubs. I have cleaned the hub to ensure there is no debris...I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

I certainly don't think I'd figure on it healing itself until I knew what the problem was.

Doesn't sound right at all. I had a little rub on the pad when I spun it by hand, but after the wheel was on, all was good. Looks like you have a bad rotor or the bracket is installed wrong.
