Well if ya want to hear a tech's(not just me all the guys at my shop) opinion on resurfacing rotors. On car with such small brakes that cant handle heat well new, resufacing them is kinda a waste. One you have them cut they end up being even worse at handleing heat. When we cut small car rotors(such as imports)at the customers request, we find that they are back sooner(because of warpage)the they would have been if we had put new rotors on(even cheap ones). On big stuff(we are a GMC dealer), the rotors have so much "meat" that even after cutting them they can go quite a long time with out being touched again.
