What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing smooths the rotor surface to restore a flat braking face; it can be appropriate for minor warping or light scoring when thickness remains within spec.
• Replacement is required when rotors are below minimum thickness, cracked, or too damaged to resurface safely—only then will we recommend new OEM rotors.
• At Richmond BMW Midlothian we document measurements, explain costs and long-term benefits, and offer service financing so you can choose the best path forward with confidence.
