Rotor Cut

Has anyone ever had centric premium rotors cut? They are only a month or so old so I dont really want to replace but they shudder.

Were the wheel lug nuts tightened to 80 ft-lbs when these new rotors were installed? Overtightened lug nuts are the leading cause of warped rotors.

If you do need to resurface them, try and find a shop that has the lathe that resurfaces them ON THE CAR like the stealerships have. That way, the new surface is PERFECTLY perpendicular to the wheel hub and spindle. And make sure the lug nuts are properly tightened when the wheels are installed.

Yeah I tightened them to 80 ft lbs. I will try to find a shop the dealer initially told me it would be $240 to resurface on the car but then they said since they are aftermarket so the would not touch them.
