At what thickness do i need to change my front rotors at?

[Hoot]

I just pulled my tyre and measured the thickness of my front rotors and it is at 13.02mm. At what thickness do i need to change them??

Thanks in advance.

The min thickness is usually stamped or cast on the rotors inner face but you'll have to remove it from the hub to read it.

When you can see through them.

they are dirt cheap...when in doubt swap-em out

13 m/m, IIRC

Sounds like you are at that point now.

thanks guys .this is what i had suspected, but wanted to be lazy. I know that lazy and safety never go hand in hand.

The rotors were OEMs and i put em on myself 2 years ago. Pretty sure that the stamp on the rotor for minimal thickness was 12.5 mm. But not totally sure.

does anyone know what page or section the rotor install instructions are in the D1 workshop manual pdf? I can't seem to find it in the pdf. I know it is there as I had printed it out last time so that i could have all the torque specs handy. It is not in the brakes section. where the heck is it?

thanks again for the help.

brake Discs are in either the front or rear axle sections under "repairs"

did you really end the topic of this thread with "at"?
