Does anyone know for sure if the rear rotors are the same size as the front?
I know that the front rotors are supposed to have the hub built into the rotor.
What I don't know at this point is whether the rear rotors fit over the lugs and whether they are the same size as the front with the exception of the hub??
Thanx

I bought a pair of rotors online and they shipped the wrong ones (they are for a 4WD) and I want to know if they will fit on the rear before I ship them back. They are trying to charge me for restocking and return shipping. Parts Train sucks!!
I have the Haynes manual but it isn't much help.
 






I've replaced both, but have no idea if they are the same size. Generally, rear rotors are smaller, but best way would be to pull the wheel and look - especially since you already have the new rotor.
Are they really charging you a restock fee for THEIR error? That would be the laast time I ordered anything from them.
 






The front rotors are larger than the rear. Also the rear rotors have a drum on the back for the e-brake so even if the front was the same size it wouldn't work.
 






Yep, they are trying but I'm going to file a dispute with the CC company.
I was afraid that was the case. I will double check but I'm pretty sure you are correct.
Thanks a bunch
