Decided to replace my front rotors and pads. Had a hell of a time trying to get my drivers side rotor off from being seized on there
When I finally put on the new rotor it was fairly snug going over the wheel studs. I may of used a rubber mallet It didn't look like it was sitting completely flush on the hub either but after tightening couple lugs temporarily it looked better. The caliper bracket once installed cleared the rotor too so I went ahead and finished the one wheel
The test drive produced some squeals which could be normal but with it not sitting flush originally I wanted to test fit the other new rotor on that hub along with my old rotor as well for a comparable. The new rotors are aftermarket ones
Now I can't get the new rotor off. Wondering if the design of its slightly off or if I potentially bent something getting the originally rotor off
Any suggestions. Wondering if I should just reassemble and hope for the best No vibrations or anything just a squeal
