Hi

 

Just received some brake discs for my zed today and upon looking at it, it doesn't have that hole for the stud/bolt to go on and mount the disc . Is this normal or non compatible ?

 

- Image 1 is the one I have bought (5 holes)

-image to is the one that's meant to be on car (5 holes + 1)

 

Thanks for any advice in advance .

Doesn't really make much difference. I would check they are the correct size discs for the car as its pretty odd they haven't come with them

 

Could be JDM brake disc instead of Brembo.

 

JDM-

front 296mmx24mm

rear 293mmx16mm

 

Brembo

324mmx30mm

322x22mm

Not all car manufactures use the stud bolts, they're pretty pointless really as they're only to prevent you placing the rear wheels on the front, which is easily preventable by actually looking at the tyre. Most people also remove them because they don't fit with after market rims.

 

If the disks are the right sizes mentioned a few posts ago then they are fine.

Haha thanks for all the replies.. I will do trash the extra stud 😄

 

... Anyone got any good advice on how to get those 22mm caliper mounting bolts off ? .. They're a b**tch. Lol. Already tries wd40 and having no luck right now :/

 

I used a 36" breaker bar, was a piece of strawberry cheesecake using it :p

Haha. I could do with some cheese cake. Still having no luck at the moment. My breaker bar is too long to fit in. It's not budging left or right 😅
