RE: Minimum Rotor thickness
The thickness is stamped on the edge of the rotor. Do your brakes shake when doing a hard stop, I don't mean the ABS, just trying to see if they are warped yet.
Atlantic British has a sale on their brake sets, might check them out.
Make sure to do a full 3 pint, DOT 4, brake bleed, use lots of sound deadening spray and torque your wheels to 105#'s.

RE: Minimum Rotor thickness
speaking of tourqe settings;i had new tires put on in the summer.about a month later i wanted to take off a front wheel for a brake pad inspection.i actually bent the factory lug wrench trying to takethe front wheeloff.finally got it off with long pipe and sore back.a lesson learned about tire shops.alwaysinsist that you want the lugs tourqued to specifications.they always hammer them on with 400ft/lbs.would not have wanted to change this tire on the highway somewhere.

The wheel nut torque is 103 lbs ft or 140 NM in my book / manual. What's this 1 1/16 socket business? [8D], it "should" be 27 mm
