Hi,

how can i tell if the brake rotors need replacing/machining?

i noticed that i can't actually remove the caliper assembly from the rotor because the brake pads have worn the rotors so there is a 'lip' on the outside...

thanks !

yeah..if theres an obvious 'lip'...time for machining. - $50 for all 4 last time i done it.
