Question quick question??

doing the brakes on my wife's equinox this weekend and trying to find somewhere closr to seffner/valrico area that will turn the front rotors. anyone know of a place?? advanced says they turn rotors but only if you buy the rotors from them which i thought made absolutely no sense at all. why would you need to turn new rotors??

If he doesn't turn them they won't cook evenly.

If you can't find a NAPA or machine shop nearby, I would just walk into a tire store like a Goodyear or Tires Plus and slip the manager a 20.

Dano,
two reasons to turn down an Advance Auto rotor:
1.If you ORIGINALLY bought it from them and it now needs it.
or
2.If you just now bought it new............ -Bob
