Oh, and one last thing, PLP is right, the little setscrews are more a convenience than a necessity, but I would suggest you should indeed use them, so that before you put the tire on you can rotate the disc to check that it is indeed not warped, and so you can check the bearing integrity (!!!). That said, they can certainly cause unnecessary grief by rusting in place, getting the head stripped, etc. So, use them, but with plenty of anti-seize paste, and tighten just ‘finger tight’. The heavy forces of braking are taken by the wheel lug bolts, or on studs ( in the case of…old 911’s…).
