mine were at 1.28 and 1.234. Cole Muffler and Brake said 1.224 is the lowest they're allowed to turn them down to. and if they put the rotors on the machine it would be difficult to turn such a small amount off and still have 1.224 left. So I paid $304 incuding tax for new rotors, ceramic brake pads, labor and including incidentals worth about $16.
They told me that original factory equipment (rotors) are inferior to the aftermarket rotors they put on the car. the new pads are lifetime warranteed but that's small consolation if I'm going to have to replace rotors regularly.
1. How many turnings should I be able to expect before replacing the rotors?
2. Shoud they be turned every time i replace the pads?
3. Are Ceramic pads the best for my car, or is something better?
