At first I worried this loss of material from the edge of the disc may cause inbalance but its closer to axle centre so maybe not to bad still a slight inbalance but still puzzling what it is. My only real rational is a wear marker but why not machine this on both discs then or evenly around the circumference to keep it balaned? Could this groove actuaally be the factory balancing process of the disc? Do we think this is a flaw or seconds reworked part?
Hmmm, any thoughts?
