Anyone got any pics of Grooved/Slotted discs on Rex?

[M@r]{]

I have a set to go on mine, want to make sure I fit them on the right way around   :Hammer

I wondered this when i got mine from speedways even thou they were marked with stickers left & right, i wondered which direction that was looking from.  they told me L= nearside R= offside

[antnicuk]

not sure if these are the right way but these are on the tripple.  the rims are 19\'s

Thanks for the pic, but its not 100% obvious what is the front   :rolleyes:   Im trying to make sure I get the grooves the right way around

the front of the car is to left of the piccy, but i\'m not sure if they are the right way, i have never really thought about it,  clive would know,  he sold me by discs for my FC, i just stuck them on.  I will have to check mine and see if i have them the right way now :xconfused

the internal veins should point to the rear iff the car. If in doubt go to the ap racing website this should explain it to you

These are mine as fitted according to the info i had from speedways

I;d say from looking at the pics ant & I have posted the grooves should look as if they are pulling  i.e the outer of the grove further forward than the inner. hope that makes sense

There you go Mark, one from the Two Tone.

Thanks guys - so the grooves go against the direction of travel then?  Should get it the right way around now!!   :rolleyes:

Thanks again

Well thats interesting, mine go the opposite direction to Freddys and I would have said mine are positioned correctly compared to his ?

Right = the side of the car you sit on

Here you go, basically the most important thing is cooling so you need the vanes (vented bit in front discs) to go the right way round, usually the slots go the opposite way to the vanes so you don\'t get a load of material removed in one place (ie they make an x shape rather than being parallel).  Not all discs are like this so its safer to go off the vanes than the direction of the slots.  

" The vanes of a directional rotor should arch back like arms on a pinwheel. On the top side of the rotor, the vanes should curve toward the back of the car."

It all depends on what type of groove they are.

If there are straight lines like freddys they go backwards. (his are correct)

If they are curvedlike black diamond ones its the oppersite to the above.

Hope that helps.
