Rotor mileage

Hi guys,

How many miles do the rotors last (not the break pads, the rotors themselves).

FWIW, I have a stock Z51.

Thanks,

Cedric

Too many variables to determine. Hell mine last only a couple of days - track days that is

is there an issue?

In normal driving, they'll last forever if you don't let worn out pads eat into them. This of course assumes that you don't somehow manage to warp them.

None, just going to order some spare parts and was pondering if I should get some rotors whilst I am at or not.

From the new status, I can see some wear on them, how long they will last is another question though.
