That will work Scott. It is the drilling part that is the only stickler. Checked
out Toronado rotors today. No studs and five holes. It might be worth the try to
save $100.00 Canadian EACH. I would like to hear from someone who has done this,
first.

sounds like a lot of hole, * I believe as only one will line up and can e
used. how many times are you replacing them? Is it really worth the
aggravation?

To replace them once will save me $175.00, including the cost of taking them to a
machine shop to be drilled. I agree with you on using the people who support the GM
but I do believe they are taking us to the cleaners if using Toro. rotors actually
does work. I will keep investigating.
