Re: Front brakes due - are rotors necessary to replace? Posted by JustinHiFi [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Front brakes due - are rotors necessary to replace?, pete ![]() |
Also take into account the minimum thickness is operational spec after machining/turning the rotors and after the new set of pads have worn down. Saab usually gives only 2mm of meat from new to work with so almost always they must be replaced with each set of pads. Thinner rotors also tend to have a greater tendency to warp. Check the outer edge of the rotor to see if you have a noticeable lip.
