Default Rotors

I stripped those 2 screws that hold the rotors on. How important are they to replace?

lol mine were rusted on when I tried to replace my rotors, so I drilled them out, and broke a hardened bit in 3 places, and sheared a carbide extractor bit very easily XD

My impact driver was around $10. Saved me tons of time last weekend. Good investment.
