Hi, looking for some disc rotor bolts (M5x10mm), should they be high tensile (like the self coloured black ones) or could they be stainless steel?.

Which is stronger as i am under the impression that stainless is not as strong as high tensile, am i wrong and being too concerned?

I use mudguard fixing bolts, fine after 6 year's use - including some extreme...braking ๐Ÿ˜›

stainless is not as strong as high tensile and shouldn't be used in load bearing applications.

although on a disc rotor, its really not going to make much difference i think, considering i have ti ones and only 3 in each rotor :S
