Default just some advice by expirience

when you turn your rotors replace your brake pads cause if you keep your old ones they have been conformed to the old rotorso itlooks like this )| against the flat rotor and it hops along the rotor and eventually goes back the way they were like this )) so after buying new pads and new rotors i thought you guys would like to know this before a brake job haha

ok. sure. no sweat.

but I never had a situation where I had to turn my rotors while my old pads were even useable. Usually I had to turn my rotors because the previous bonehead owner ran the brake pads down past the stinkin rivets and into the backer plate (soI had tp turn one rotor, had to replace the other.)
