What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

  • Resurfacing (or turning) removes a thin layer of material to restore a flat braking surface; replacement installs a new OEM rotor when resurfacing is no longer safe.
  • Resurfacing can be a cost-effective option when rotors are still within manufacturer thickness specifications; replacement is required when thickness or damage exceeds limits.
  • Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley provides honest recommendations, explaining immediate costs and long-term savings, and ensures warranty integrity by using certified processes and OEM parts.
  • We also offer service financing so you can get safe, reliable braking now and pay over time—schedule service to learn more.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors perform different roles on the 2010 Subaru Legacy, and one set can wear faster than the other. The front rotors typically handle more braking load because weight shifts forward during deceleration; as a result, front rotors and pads often require service sooner. Rear rotors help stabilize and provide balance; they may wear more slowly but should still be inspected regularly. Our technicians at Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley check both axles, measure rotor thickness, and test for runout and heat-related damage. If one axle shows excessive wear, we recommend addressing it proactively to prevent uneven braking, ABS issues, and increased repair costs. We routinely pair inspection with value-driven options—resurfacing when safe, OEM replacement when needed, and clear warranty coverage on parts and labor. For families and commuters in Greeley, timely rotor care reduces emergency repairs and improves safety.
