Are slotted rotors directional or not, meaning are they supposed to go with the wheel or against the wheel. As in the direction of the slots, does it matter which way they go? If this makes sense to you any info would help.

 

They only go in one way, the flat side sits against the steering knuckle.

 

For Powerslots, they are labeled -> L and R

 

LOL awesome. That was funny.


Anyways you need to look at the cooling vanes on the rotors to know which side to put them on, the direction of the slots is rather inconsequential. I've seen them (actually owned them) slotted both ways towards the "back" and towards the "front".

 

For maximas it shouldnt matter. The cooling vanes are not directional for our cars.

 

Dr-Max I hope you were either confused or kidding, but it made me laugh, thanks. Nealoc187 thanks for the info, I just wanted to know what other people said about this. So there really isn't a wrong way to put the direction of the cooling slots, foward or back, either way. Mine were not marked, so I put the slots pointing foward. Guess its good this way,brakes well and stays alot cooler than oem. Thanks again Nealoc187 and Dubbya for the quick responses.
