Information on Purchasing Brake Rotors and Replacing Brake Discs

Brembo The Disk Brake Rotors on todays vehicles are made of iron with machined surfaces where the brake pads contact the brake disc and cause your car or truck to stop when you apply pressure to the brake pedal. The rule of thumb is that you should always have your rotors replaced or turned about every other every time you replace your brake pads. It will cost you around $45.00 per rotor to have them turned by a local brake or machine shop. (Please be advised that most vehicles produced in the last 10 years have a composite style rotor that should never be turned, as you will remove the heat tempering from the disc.

Replacing the non composite rotors with new OEM or Genuine OES quality discs will in most cases is about the same price as having the rotors turned. For composite rotors, we recommend only replacing the rotors if the become defective, warped or have deep grooves. You will find most dealers trying to convince you that you always have to have the rotors replaced regardless of condition! This is NOT true! If your shop or dealer tries this tactic and your vehicle is less than 10 years old, get a second opinion before spending hundreds, even thousands on a brake job.
