Rotors are here. One question...

Just want to be sure. My rotors are marked R for right and L for left. Is that looking at the truck? Or looking from inside the truck? You never know with the way some companies think. They're powerslots, btw. Thanks in advance!

i would put them so that when the rotor spins the direction of the travel, that the fins on the clamping surface (it has engraved marks to pull the heat away right?) spin outward. do not put them so that when it spins the direction of travel that it "scoops" the air inward. they are meant to push out the air by centrifugal force, and that would be what i said above.


here is a crude image i threw together
