Default Attn: Anybody who has bought Brembo blank rotors for their civic...

I know that they're a great set of rotors to get, but I was just wondering if the rotors came with replacement screws.

Haven't replaced my rotors yet, but the last time my rotors were replaced, the screws we're a little stripped. I'm just preparing for the worst and would like to get new ones and was wondering if brembo's were supposed to come with it or not.

I can't say with 100% confidence that mine didn't but I'm fairly certain they did not, I just reused the OE ones.

Stop by your local Sears and pick up an impact driver, it will make your life much easier.

Anyone not use the screws? Mine need to be drilled out like every time and most other cars don't even use them. I was thinking of just not putting them back on next time.

In short, you don't need to use the screws. They come that way from the factory because the screws hold the rotors in place when the car is being moved along the assembly line. Once you put the wheel back on and tighten up the lugs, the rotor will be fine.........Personally, I put the screws back in and hand tighten them, but you don't need to - their purpose has already been served.

I ordered a set (from eBay) and they did not come with the screws... But as said above, u really dont need them... Ive had to drill them out before on previous cars and never put another screw back in... The lugs will hold it on just fine...
