they are floating if im not mistaken, meaning they are tighened by the wheel nuts. i assume if his wheel is on, the rotor is on ok.

Besides that, if they weren't on correctly, there'd be a lot of feedback through the steering wheel.

Not necessarily. Yes, they are floating but caliper is not floating (in the sport package). So you could have slight rotor run-out from rust on the hub and not necessarily feel it under braking as much as you would with a floating caliper.
