Can I run abs drilled slotted rotor on a car that does NOT have abs (non abs)? I mean I just want to use the rotor, do not care for the sensors since i Dont have them. Do i have to worry about the type of pads, caliper (pad carrier), or clearance of the rim or anything? Can I just use it without the ABS functionality?

whats the difference, all i really want to do is just run it.

the ABS rotor is a bit bigger than the non ABS rotor. it will rub on the caliper bracket. you can buy drilled and slotted rotors for non ABS applications.

thanks! that answers my question perfectly, so that means if I got the calipers too it would work then.

Its just that ABS has more selection of rotors.
