Can cross drilled rotors be turned
I don't know how it happened but my 5000 miles old Brembo cross drilled rotors on my Supra TT needs to be resurfaced,steering wheel shake on applying brakes ? My question is since they are pretty new would i be able to get them resurfaced at a machine shop or just throw them away and get another set ?
Feedback appreciated. Thanks |

They can be cut, but some shops will not do them.
All that's required is small cuts to reduce the cutting blade chatter as they pass over the holes. I have done the rotors on my 930 once myself. |

Instead of turning them on a lathe, disc rotors should have their surface ground down.

if you believe the "rotors don't warp" theory, then it's just the accumulation of material on the pad.
