I stopped using the set screws a few years ago. I never found it to
be a significant burden to align the rotor, hub, and wheel, IMHO. I
wouldn't sweat it, unless there's some purpose to the screw besides
making wheel installation easier. I just put a wheel on, align it to
the rotor (easy to do, the rotor spins pretty freely), and then spin
the two together until a lug bolt I'm pressing pops into the hub a bit.
But, most of the time it was with the luxury of time, some light, and
a driveway :-)
