Rotors

Is there anyone that offers a brake rotor that won't warp in a few thousand miles?

Thanks

I have heard a lot of people complaining about warped rotors. What are the symptoms if your rotors are warped?

Wheels,

Most typical symptom:

Steering wheel shaking when depressing the brake pedal....stops shaking when you let off the brake.

You might feel some pulsing too when you have your foot on the brake.

If you turn the rotors, they will just warp that much quicker. The thinner they get, the quicker they warp. I had mine turned once, and pulled my 8,000lb travel trailer once. By the time I got back, I could already start to feel the warping.

I'm waiting for my ART rotors and pads to come in. Can't wait to get rid of the shake!!!
