If the rotors are new. just put them on the vehicle they will be fine. I do not like aftermarket rotors especially on this vehicle if they are aftermarket you will probably have warpage problems with the front. The match mounting is looking for the low spots and high spots in the rotors and hubs to set them up with the least amount of run-out. This vehicle has an update kit from jeep that has rotors calipers and pads because they were having a lot of problems. The dodge part # is 05093174AA I suggest you do this update to fix your brakes correctly. Hope this helps. Please click accept for me. ThanksImages available only to Customers.
