    Did I get the right rotors?

    I just got some new rotors on ebay, got em today and I noticed the front ones have threaded holes on em, the rear ones are just blanks holes. I don't remember seeing threaded holes on the front rotors, I thought they just slide on, are these right? I got a 1990 Accord EX.

    yep, sound like the right ones.

    The front brakes on 90-97 Accord are hub-over-rotor and can be a pain to replace. The rotors are mounted to the hubs with four bolts, thats why you see the threaded holes.

    edit:
    here's a picture of 90-97 Accord front rotors.

    If they look like that then you have the right ones.

        yep, np

        as long as you (or previous owner) didn't do a rotor-over-hub conversion with CL parts then you have the standard hub-over-rotor.

          Cool, thanks guys. I just hope the bolts are going to come off, the car is 16 years old...

            the bolts are the least of the problem...them being pressed in for 14 years is the real kicker

              wait wouldn't someone have already changed the rotors numerous times before this? unless someone has really last 14 years without doing a brakejob,lol.

                Well, the rear ones will be easy since I had the conversion done recently. The front have probably been replaced once I HOPE, I see alot of misery in my future.

                      If you are going to remove the bolts that hold on the rotor you Should use a impact Wrench.
