What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Resurfacing (machine-turning) smooths the rotor surface to remove minor grooves or unevenness, restoring a flat contact area for the pads when the rotor remains above minimum thickness.
  • Replacement is necessary when the rotor is below the manufacturer’s minimum thickness, cracked, or heat-damaged; new OEM rotors restore full integrity and balance.
  • At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick we recommend the option that maximizes safety and long-term value; resurfacing can save money up front, while replacement avoids future problems caused by thin or compromised rotors.
  • Warranty work must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid; we offer service financing and clear estimates—schedule service to get a detailed recommendation.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

On a 2014 Lexus LS 460, front and rear rotors serve distinct roles: the front rotors handle a greater portion of braking force and heat, so they typically wear faster than the rear rotors. That imbalance means front rotors are more likely to develop thickness loss, scoring, or heat-related warping. At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick in Colorado, our certified technicians inspect both axles and recommend targeted service—resurfacing where safe, replacement when below OEM minimums—to maintain balanced braking performance and prevent uneven pad wear. Choosing dealership service often costs less than independent shops when you factor in accurate diagnostics, correct machining tolerances, and OEM parts that extend part life. We document the condition, explain immediate and long-term savings from doing the job correctly the first time, and offer clear warranty coverage when work is performed with factory parts.
