I ran them "backwards" so opposite to the above on a powerful car and they were fantastic even with std pads, I've never liked fast road or race pads, too much dust
In your picture the front of the vehicle is on the right?

Are the discs machined the same or handed?

Huge debate on this, according to the info I have received previously the pic above is wrong but ive run them the other way and they just grated the pads in weeks
I may swap them around but I'm not ashamed to admit I've fitted them because I like the look

Yes, drivers side, right hand drive
thats the way I thought they were meant to go , for water clearing, my bikes all go that way .Just been through the pics, did the Disco ones as above and that did 2 years and probably 50k miles
They are possibly the biggest pain in the motor trade.
I hate them with a passion.
When you ask the customer were it is
"be in the car somewhere"
OK it is 57quid an hour for me to look for it
They soon find it
I have removed hundreds of the nasty things
Some of the Volvo with a deep recess are nasty
Weld a tube to the nut with a stick rod up the middle always works
The tube protects the wheel the welding heat helps as well
I always say to people that if they insist on keeping them always undo them and take them out before letting a tyre bay of garage loose on them. There is absolutley no need for anyone to be buzzing on/off with impact guns.

I'd have fitted that to the n/s front - it'll be interesting to learn if/when anyone comes up with a definite, 100% 'for sure' answer.

Kayos, you know the grief we suffered with our brakes. I’m now wondering if the discs were on the wrong way. Going to check the truck tomorrow and see what way the discs we put on are fitted.
The vehicle and brake design could all be influencing factors. If the grooves go right to the edge then if the grooves face forward the airflow could be scooped down the groove if they face backwards they air would be sucked from the inside.
