Rear Hub/Bearing housing

So taking apart the rear end on the car, I tried to get out the screws holding the rotors on and I broke off not 1 but 2 impact screwdriver bits in the screws... one came out without any problems ... the other... well lets just say, I had to drill it out. Unfortunatly I managed to get off center (not my fault metal made me do it) and now I think I may have damage the threads in the screw holes ( when I say may have I mean unless the hand of god stopped me I know I did). But anyways so my question is this...

How critical are the screws? Will one work since the wheel holds on the rotor too by being tightened on the hub/rotor? Should I just replace the hub? Anyone have a Hub for sale if this is the case?

Thanx for any advice

No problem, as they are used for assembly at the factory, they don't need to be replaced.
