I hate to say it, but Snap on is the way to go. I've used mine a hundred times a day for the last 6 or 7 years and I've yet to have an issue with them. The problem with rotor bolts is they are very shallow and leave little room for error. So having a quality tool that is reliable is what counts. I use mine with electric impacts and regular ratchets and torque wrenches all the time. The cars I work on are picky and like when things are torqued properly. Buy quality and you won't have a problem.
I'll snag one and see how it likes and impact, my guess is not so much lol

Tools, TVs, phones, watches, or whatever..... If you do a just a little research and buy a known brand name that costs just a little above average, you will probably be happy. Not always........but usually.
I bought the Husky set from Home Depot, and it rounded out the first bolt I tried to undo...guess I'm going to have to fork out the tokens for a good Snap-On set.

I overtighten everything, and use blue loctite, which is part of the issue, but yeah, I've found some bolt materials to just be made of chocolate and if the allen head isn't spot on, they just round out.
Need to get better at that.

Better bolts are the key. I try to use stainless steel bolts with the same size head or socket on as many things a possible on Treys bikes. Fewer tools required and less chance of rounding off/out. ProBolts sells predrilled bolts in all sizes and lengths in stainless steel.
