Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors play distinct roles on the 2025 BMW i5: the front rotors handle a larger share of braking load and typically show faster wear because weight transfers forward during braking. Rear rotors work with electronic aids and regenerative systems to balance braking and vehicle stability. When fronts are worn, you may feel stronger pedal pulsation or reduced stopping power; rear issues often present as uneven braking or noise. At Richmond BMW Midlothian we diagnose whether resurfacing is safe or if OEM replacement is required to restore proper ABS and traction control function. We honor manufacturer warranties and provide transparent pricing, so customers understand immediate costs and long-term savings from proper service.
