    Turn the rotors?

    I was wondering if these could be turned or just buy new rotors?

      Well ventilated, but I'd worry more about the missing studs

        NOT my vehicle, just a pic I found but thought it was funny.


        If it were my wifes car she would INSIST it made no funny noises at all they just quite working without warning..


        I think it is a vehicle that uses bolts instead of studs??

          The hard part wouldn't be turning them the hard part in my area would be finding a place that still turns rotors.

            Come to think about it, yeah, probably some sort of Euro-trash using bolts

              I say turn 'em more than they already are.... less rotating mass = better E.T. times!

              At least the dust shield is nice and intact - might try to turn that!!
