the bearings do not have to be pressed into the new rotor, however the bearing races do.

some places have them already installed ( the racers) ergo the high cost of rear rotors.. Just ask to see before you buy.. its a real easy install. Also get a caliper an check the thickness of the rotors you may only need to replace the pads an get them cut . I personaly just sand them an slap the new pads on ( rear only) always buy new for the front
