Re: Dumb question inside...only read if u arent gonna flame lol

Most cars do not have pressed on rotors. Most slip over the hub. There are some very unique ones out there though that do. DSM's don't have pressed on hubs. Older cars with from disk brakes were one piece where you would have to take off the nut that held the bearings in and slide the rotor off of the spindle.

If your rotor is warped, 9 times out of 10 they can not be machined and stay within spec. It is more time efficient to just replace the rotors. But more cost effective to have them machined. It usually costs around $8-10 per rotor to have them turned. But the prices of most rotors are so cheap now that it's better to just replace them.

The minimum spec is also cast into every rotor. Although, with as much rust that gets into the non-friction areas, you usually can't read it anyways.
