'92 500 SEL brake help?

My '92 500 SEL has large "roll pins" installed on the hub, the replacement rotors will not line up properly with these pins installed. Has anyone else run into this? Should the pins be removed?


Thanks,
Bill

I think mercedes put them in for a good reason.


If it was me I would return the discs and try a different brand

If your replacement rotors do not have the holes for the pins, then just remove them. These pins are to locate the rotor on the hub only. The actual clamping force is from the wheel and lug bolts.
