What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing smooths the rotor surface to remove light grooves and restore a flat braking plane; replacement installs a new rotor when resurfacing isn't safe or effective.
• At Larry H. Miller Casa Chevrolet, technicians measure thickness and tolerance to recommend resurfacing only when it meets OEM safety limits—otherwise we replace rotors using OEM parts for lasting performance.
• We outline cost comparisons up front, point to long-term savings from correct repairs, and offer financing options to make either choice affordable.
