Hi,

New here to the fourm. I have a 2008 Dodge Avenger SXT with 38,000 miles. I need to replace the front brakes, I am wondering if anybody knows the min thickness of the rotors or knows where I may be able to find it? With onyl 38 K I should be able to turn them. Right??

Thanks!!!

 

I have a follow up question.

1) If I needed to could I use pads from NAPA and rotors from another mfg, or do they need to match? Ie Napa pads, Napa Rotors?

NOTE: When refacing a rotor, the required TIR (Total Indicator Reading) and thickness variation limits MUST BE MAINTAINED.

** Referred to as ”14-inch” because they are designed to fit inside 14-inch or larger wheels. Actual rotor diameter is 262 mm (10.3 in.).

*** Referred to as ”16-inch” because they are designed to fit inside 16-inch or larger wheels. Actual rotor diameter is 302 mm (11.8 in.).
