PLEASE HELP - anyone recognise these pieces?

Hi

Do you recognise these pieces - they may be road trash, but I found them loose inside the left front brake hub - pretty wedged into the rotors vanes on my GT3, and I am concerned about where they may have come from.

Any help would be appreciated. my thumb is for a size reference - they are similar sized, but not identical - the wire is thicker on the one.

I've seen those in rotors before. Could be for balancing ?

Those are for balancing the rotor. hope you remember where they were.

Man, that sucks!

The rotor will be marked or scratched where those came out of. Put them back. If they are loose, pull them back out and open them up to increase compression. Good luck.

Thanks - They were loose - one was caught on the A arm, and one was hanging into the center of the brake rotor - came out when I checked for debris - caught on my finger and popped out - then I found the other one caught on the A arm- no worries - they can be returned easily enough.
