HI. Do you have any photos of the rotors? Especially from the back. I'm going to do the same with mine. Thanks. Wally :D

There are photos of the redrilled rotors already on this site. You will need to use screw in wheels studs with Locktite. there is not enought room on most rotors because of the metal framing on the backside. The article has photos and instructions, very helpful for me, mine came out perfect.

While I had Moser engineering do mine I don't see why you couldn't do them IF you are very careful to maintain concentricity when drilling. The pattern has to be perfectly centered with the center hub to avoid any vibrations. Using a wheel bolt pattern gauge can certainly help. You are basically drilling and tapping 5 holes, the tricky part is the measuring to get them positioned exactly where you want them. If you screw up you are pretty much screwed :lol:
