I've had trouble at 0.002 and above. Watch out for automatic car washes that spray cold water on the wheels when the brakes are hot.

Took rotor to local major part chain for turning... they took it out back and drove a couple trucks over it, then had monkeys hit it with chisels and hammers.. (i.e. totally fubar'ed the turning)... I tossed a major temper tantrum... they gave me cash for a new slotted/drilled rotor from Jegs and gave me a loner rotor... the loner rotor fixed the problem.. so yes... 0.002" can be a major issue. Would have bet a "C" bill that it wouldn't have been...
