Default changing aftermarket rotors.

im currently in the market for new rotors just to upgrade. My ? is there's no hairline scratches on my KVR's that are on the TA right now so if i purchase a new set of rotors can i give the rotors i currently have which have 75K ok them to my brother if so how does he go about resurfacing them "if" they can be resurfaced. thanks

The rotors should have a minimum thickness stamped on them somewhere. Grab a dial caliper and check them out. After 75,000 miles, I'm not sure there's much value in giving them to your brother unless he is destitute and the only rotors he has are cracked. I would have to think after 75k, they need to be turned, which ought to reduce any safe, usable thickness left to nothing.

Never heard of anyone that will. Downside # 3485 to cross-drilleds.
