At the SVA rolling road session it was pointed out to me that my grooved discs were fitted the wrong way round.

I had fitted them myself and was a bit perplexed since each disc had a sticker indicating specifically which side of the car to fit them.

It was pointed out that Pele had hers fitted the wrong way round and comparison was made to the Skyline nearby which did have the curved groves the opposite way around.

I checked with the supplier of the Black Diamond discs to ensure they were fitted the correct way round.

I have just fitted some Black Diamons to my BMW, and the box and the sticker on the disc say that they should be fitted exactly the way I had originally on my scoob too.

My point is......

Always follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the disc despite what any 'knowledgeable' person may think is right.

I had a tyre fitter put a tyre on the wrong way round once. I mentioned it to him and he said, "no mate, I assue you, that is the right way". I then pointed out the directional arrow was facing the back of the car. His reply, "f**k, that one needs doing too!". Just shows, as you say, dont always trust the 'experts'.
