So should I just replace the rotors? Have them resurfaced? Or just bite the bullet and get the AP sprint BBK?
Chances are you will need to get new ones. However, there is a margin of tolerance the shops who do this kind of work can shave off, but it's no promise that they will be in optimum condition. So in my professional opinion, with formal schooling on the subject, I would suggest replacements since you have ran them that hard to begin with. The next time might not be so forgiving when needed to stop hard. With that, I believe these cars need upgraded brakes as it is. So personally when it's time to change mine I'll be going for performance upgrades on them. I honestly feel that this car should stop a little faster. Good luck, WithNolock.
