Isn’t that rotor going the wrong direction?

That is the correct direction. I'd say roughly 80% put them in the other way which is incorrect. Think of physics and centripetal force on rotation - like a sprinkler when you were a kid and it was spinning when you held it in the vertical position. The water was forced into a curve that looks identical to that rotor.

I’d have to disagree. You can literally see an arrow indicating the direction the rotor should go, at least according to wilwood.

Stunning wheels on an incredible car. Very cool that they’re one-off.

Nice work!

That's funny right there, I don't care who ya are!.

I actually did put mine on this way then noticed while installing the second one the arrow pointing back. Took the first side apart and changed them around to the other side. I thought the same thing (think sprinkler, think moving dust away from the brakes etc.) But the arrow goes the other way?.... ok maybe I was wrong. So was Kindig-It so I don't feel so bad now.
