Return them and get vented rotors. Why downgrade? Was the build date after 4/98? __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti 2003 MINI Cooper S 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 11-15-2006, 05:16 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | If your car was 1998 March or earlier...solid rotors, otherwise vented fronts. You must use the correct ones.

IMHO, nothing is better than OEM blanks. Drilled are nothing more than bling. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti 2003 MINI Cooper S 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 11-15-2006, 02:37 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | BMP Designs.
