Howdy, so I was taking wheels off for something and noticed I have two identical wide grooves in just the inside face of both of my front rotors. The grooves are not on the outside faces.

Is this just a clip misplacement of the pads? Those things are also so strange to navigate.

These rotors and clips and pads were brand new when I put them in a year or so ago. I thought I installed everything correctly but perhaps not!

I think maybe I need to buy a new set of everything again and redo it, but just looking for anyone's input in case it's something else.

thanks !

I agree. It looks like rivet grooves. How do the pads look?
