Skim rotor and new brake pads reasonable ?

[Hamburger]

Sorry for finding an old thread but tmr I'm gng to change my pads

Braking got vibration, i think skim is 30 per pc I ask my stockist tdy brand new is 115 per pc

Wonder what's best for me ?? Any opinions tks

If its the first time skimming on a jap or kimchi rotor, its a go.

 

And refrain from car wash immediately after a long drive, sudden contraction of rotors may cause warp in rotor.

Buy new better,worry free,sometime after skimming, discs don't lasts.

 

Ya man I google afew and it's better to get new for that bit of difference

Tks bro

It's a jap car but I bought it when it's 5 yo

If it's brand new from myself n got vibrate I may skim

But I really duno wat the previous owner did

So I guess not much diff in price

I get new rotor since I got new original pads with me

Tks

I went for my front disc rotors skimming 2 pieces and the workshop quoted me less than $6x exclude GST. They will remove the rotors and skim and downtime about 2 hrs After skimming I can feel the difference after braking in high speed. Previously my steering wheel was wobbling when brake in high speed. The workshop is in the west area (bukit merah). If you want can PM me I can give you the address.

Hi  Bros,

 

During morning, when I brake will give a sound. After running a while, there is no more sound. This happens only when the car is not driven for a few hours.

 

I have asked WS. Some said its rotor not even and some said its bake pad not suitable?

 

Do you guys have similiar experience?

[Deividz]

Most likely rotor.
