au2sw: i understand where u r coming from and u gave an explanation why, hence i was happy to explain my side in my first reply to you, and yes i have seen some nicely warped rotors too, which are too close to machining, but we only machine between .2 and .4mm in a rough cut and .1mm in a fine cat which totals in a max of .5mm per side, totaling 1mm overall and that has solved some of the worst warpages u can find, coming from sprint cars

as for pads, sure if they have 5 or 6mm left id recommend to replace them while at it, we normally dont recommend till 3 to 4mm per pad on a regular street car a bit more on a performance orientated car (or we know the owner gives it stick), but if u still have 10+mm, again no need to replace, especially when u run some good pads
