Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2025 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe 430i: front rotors handle most of the braking force and typically wear faster due to weight transfer under braking, while rear rotors provide balance and stability. That difference means front rotors often require attention sooner, but uneven wear or caliper issues can force rear rotor service as well. Richmond BMW Midlothian’s technicians measure both axles to recommend a cost-effective plan — sometimes resurfacing fronts and replacing rears, or replacing both axles when safety and longevity demand it. We use genuine BMW parts and follow OEM procedures, which helps avoid repeat visits and reduces lifetime ownership costs.
