Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 uses front and rear rotors sized and tuned for their roles: the front rotors handle most of the stopping force and heat, so they typically wear faster than rear rotors. Front rotors are larger and receive higher loads during braking, especially when towing — a common use for Silverado owners in Albuquerque and surrounding areas. Rear rotors share braking duties and help with stability and parking brake functions, but they usually see less thermal stress. At Larry H. Miller Casa Chevrolet, our technicians inspect both axles and explain whether resurfacing or replacement is best. We prioritize safety and transparency: if front rotors are warped or below thickness spec we recommend OEM replacements; if rear rotors are within tolerance, resurfacing can restore smooth performance and extend pad life. Take advantage of our localized expertise, quick lane service, and available service specials. To protect braking performance for daily driving and towing, schedule service online and ask about service financing options so you can get repairs done now and pay later.
