Apparently Power Stop Cryo rotors are a LEFT and a RIGHT side. Well didnt find that out (cuz I started to rush when the job got easier) until everything was buttoned up and ready to go. I called power stop and they said as long as both rotors are rotating in the same direction its not really a problem - which after driving it for 2 days they stop on a dime...no shimmy or pull or weird pulse. They said if I put on a LEFT and LEFT or a RIGHT and RIGHT then one tire would be rotating oposite of the other which would be bad.

Now I dont have time to swap the rotors back to their proper sides cuz leaving on a road trip in 1 day and have to work. So my question is if I wait to replace my pads next year (which I generally do new pads once a year regardless of how much is left) can I flip the rotors around at that time without any problem? also Ive never had to cut my rotors once I started doing the pads every year, there was never any type of bad wear or damage cuz it never got to that point.

Thanks
