Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front and rear rotors on a 2025 Subaru Forester serve complementary roles: front rotors typically handle more braking force and usually show wear sooner due to weight transfer under braking. Rear rotors assist in stabilization and parking brake function, and their wear pattern can differ based on driving style and load. At Mike Shaw Subaru Greeley in Greeley, CO, our certified technicians inspect both axles and explain why a front rotor may require replacement before the rear. Choosing dealership service means access to OEM rotors and factory-calibrated procedures that preserve ABS and electronic stability systems. We clearly outline repair options—resurface when safe, replace when necessary—and show how timely rotor care prevents costly damage to pads, calipers, and suspension components.
