Front discs and disc bolts

I had the discs off this time last year to have the wheels powder coated and the back bolts were all a pain although the fronts came out ok, I'm not sure I want the risk of them rounding off too...

Yeah it's because the front discs are floating, whereas the rear isn't so the heat from the brakes transfers to the hub and welds the bolts to the wheel.
I've had to change the rear wheel before when the only bolt that i could move snapped off inside.


My lines were braided that had the fault but if you have original rubber lines then there's even more chance it could cause a problem as they bulge when they age (no jokes please) giving the sensation of pulsing/juddering or indeed a warped disc feeling.   
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
