Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on your 2019 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe — front rotors typically handle the brunt of braking force and heat, which means they often wear faster than rear rotors. Front rotors are larger and subject to greater stress because weight transfers forward under braking; rear rotors help stabilize and provide balance during stopping. At Richmond BMW Midlothian we inspect both axles to identify uneven wear, warped surfaces, or signs that resurfacing is no longer effective. When front rotors show runout or heat damage, replacement avoids pulsation and uneven pad wear. Our service lanes use OEM parts and precision equipment, ensuring the brake system maintains factory tolerances for safety and performance. We also run a full inspection of calipers, pads, and brake fluid to prevent premature rotor issues. Ask about our current service specials, and when you are ready you can schedule service online for fast turnaround and clear pricing.
