Angry rotora brakes

Can rotora slotted brakes be resurfaced? Mine seem to be warped. Steering wheel shakes. Just put them on with new axxis ultimates. Sucks, not sure how a warrenty would work either Help!

You can but you will need to ask around. Not all shops resurface slotted rotors.

If you rotors warped that quickly, I would guess that the lug nuts were over torqued. They should be at 80lb/ft. At this point I keep a spare torque wrench at home and re-torque the lugs whenever a shop removed my wheels.

You just put them on? Let the pads bed in. It's normal for new rotors and pads to cause shaking. It's not necessarily because they are warped.

Did you read the break-in procedure? If they shop did not do the initial break-in for you, you might want to do it.
