Rear Brake Rotors
 
I got a set of rear rotors for my GSL from oreilly auto parts. They are wagner rotors. Neither of them fit, just a few mm off on all the holes. Anybody have this experience before?

Sounds like they sold you rotors for a GSL-SE. Those are vented, and use a larger bolt pattern for the wheels. GSL rotors should be a solid disk. Part number BD60698, if the website is giving me the right info....

Ya, Its part number BD60698. Non-vented. It is about 2 mm off from each hole. The screw holes are too far out, and 3 of the lugs are off 3mm. Both are off the same amount.

Lug holes too far apart? or too close together? The S/GS/GSL and GSL-SE bolt pattern is only 4.3MM difference total. Perhaps someone replaced the rearend with an SE unit?

Ya, I mesured everything out and it is the stock rear end. By the mesurements that I can do on the new vs old rotor, I think they stock the -SE rear caliper for both rear ends.

Not very pleased with them now. Any place I can get a set of cheap rear rotors?

I have a GSL too, I bought Beck-Arnley rear discs, they're amazing and reasonably priced too. it's worth looking into.
