    Smile front disc rotors/left right same?

    hi
    ive got a vs and im wondering if the front left and right standard discs are the same(not left or right biased?)
    ive got a scrap car for parts and need the front left disc for my beast,but cant get the front left wheel off the parts car as the wheel nuts were done up too tight on the alloys and the standard nuts are too soft and all rounded.
    any feedback is appreciated
    thanks

    so long as they're standard and not slotted etc, then yes they're symmetrical and there's no specific left or right

    If you were fitting brand new ones i'd say yes but if they are old ones it shouldn't make much difference

    Yeah, whilst I agree with you, I wouldn't use 2nd hand rotors anyway. I'd either machine the ones I have, depending on thickness, or replace with new ones.

    Brakes aren't something I'd skimp on.
