325is94 is on a distinguished road
a quick question

today while changing the rottors on my 325is the usual problem happened to me which is i stripped one of the rotor hex bolts, i got three rotors installed and have that one old one in. my question is is the bolt necessary or can i drive without it till i get it later? i mean i can put the wheel and that can pretty much hold the rotor in place but will it cause a safety issue?

thanks in advance, just want to know if i should finish the job right now or wait till get i get the bolt.

mmendell is an unknown quantity at this point
You should be fine. I did the same thing. I drove the car for a few months until getting the time to replace those hex bolts.
