I'm getting an 8inch Hayes rotor to take the place of my current 6inch rotor. What I want to know is should I loctite the little star bolts that connect the rotor to the hub.

By the way I am also getting an 8inch rotor adaptor for my Hydro Caliper, so don't remind me about that.

Cheers

I would strongly reccomend it unless you want your rotor bolts to loosen up and destroy your hub when you go to hit the brakes.
