Your not pulling it into the center.. you are pulling it THROUGH the center. This way you are creating a vacuum. The other way you would be trying to "scoop" that air into the rotor. Given the small size of the passages I would think (some engineer could explain this better Im sure) that it would not move much air though the rotor. The vacuum would be much more effective at pulling air into the center of the rotor, through the channels and out the edge of the rotor. More air moved means more heat dissapated..

I followed Baer's 'gallery' advice...
I installed my Baer Eradispeed II rotors the same way the Baer gallery shows rotors installed on their cars:

The most funny part would be if this thread went out of hand then you find out someone accidentally put the "L" sticker and the "R" sticker on the wrong side before they sent them out.

Adam the "L" and "R" was a joke. I DO know what left and right are(I think)

Yes I understood the joke. But either the L and R are on the wrong side or the disks are on the wrong side.

Ok, the brakes are now switched as marked by Touring Classics. Funny thing is that I'm such a big poser that the only way my rotors ever get heated up is when I have the wheels off to detail everything and I wash it all with hot water.

hmm I really wonder which way they are supposed to go. According to almost every picture I have seen of disk brakes, it looks like you had them the correct way. Same as the Baer brakes that jeffandre pictured above.
Just looked at the Mule. It has them the same way you did. I say just ignore the L or R and put them on how you want.Adam_______Offical Car Name "ILLUSION"
