2011 TSX base. Mic'ed the front rotors = 1.11". As I understand it minimum thickness is 1.02" or 26mm. Rotors have 60k miles on them and visually are in good condition (no shudder at all). I need new pads. What say you? Replace rotors or just change the pads.Will be doing the work myself.

Second question: If I go back pads only, I will probably do OEM. Best on-line source for Honda parts is?

Thanks in advance for looking and replying,

if you measured the rotor thickness and it's above the minimum........................................... ............
that's your answer.

However, if you want to spend the coin, then go ahead and replace the rotors.
you dont have to use OEM pads...you can use autozone pads with GREAT results.
but if you wish to use the overpriced OEM pads, you can try www.acuraoemparts.com or even rockauto.com

 

I recommend using Akebono ASP pads paired with Centric rotors. They stop the car great in stop and go traffic.
