Kragen resurfaces rotors for something like $30 a pop. The problem is that they only do it at certain locations. I went to the one in Rocklin to get my wife's old car's rotors turned.

if they're not warped, don't resurface them. all it really does is decrease the life of your disks.

ide just buy new. if you resurface them there is no guarentee they wont be under the minimum thickness. and if yoru going to do rotors, you might as well do new pads, and clean fluid at the same time, LOL.

Please do not turn your rotors.
This will remove mass from the rotor, which will lower the amount of heat they absorb.
Which will lead to a firey crash.
