Question bricks under the rotors supporting the car?

Is this bad for the car at all? If the car was left on bricks for a day? My friend got his rims stolen off his car and bricks were left under the rotors to support the car before he could put his car on jack stands.

it shouldnt have done anything bad, just make sure he cleans off all the dirt, pieces of bricks that got on the rotors, since you need a smooth clean breaking surface, other than that, there should be no damage..

At least the bastards put bricks under the rotors -- I've seen people just let the car rest right on the ground. His rotors will be OK though. Guess he has to get some 18's now. What a shame.
