Arrow Everybody please Help!!!!!

Hey guys,
My car is in for service and they are doing some SRS work on the car. I was gonna get my rotors replaced but they said it was only a 12,000 mile TSB. I have 26,000 miles on my car. Thats bull shi*. The rotors have hot spots in them and are warped ,and they want me to buy new ones. What should I do. If I am forced to buy new rotors what should I get. I dont want stock cuz the suck and am not gonna pay that much for stock. I also have to change my brake pads. I got AXIS from TIM. Is installation for brake pads and roaters hard? Please let me know. Thank you.

The hardest part is bleeding the brakes and pushing the piston back to its original position. If you do not know what the heck I am talking about, then either have a fellow TL member help you out or pay a mechanic to do it.

Is this true (that the rotor TSB is good for < 12K miles)??

install went good except the front rims of the Racingheart EV C2 would not fit. They are touching the caliper. But the Rotors look Sweet.

This can be different issue, but the dealer re-surface my rotors and replace brake pad on the front when I was about 18K miles.
