What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?
- Resurfacing removes a thin layer from the rotor to restore a smooth braking surface when thickness and condition permit; replacement installs new rotors when resurfacing is no longer safe.
- Resurfacing can save money short term, but if the rotor is near minimum thickness or deeply damaged, replacement provides longer life and better value over time.
- Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington evaluates rotors to recommend the safest, most cost-effective choice and documents how that decision delivers immediate and long-term savings.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors
On a 2018 Kia Stinger, front and rear rotors perform the same fundamental job—convert kinetic energy to heat to slow the vehicle—but they face different loads and wear patterns. The front rotors typically handle a higher portion of braking force because weight transfers forward during deceleration; as a result, front rotors often wear faster and may need resurfacing or replacement sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors still require attention because uneven wear between front and rear can affect ABS performance and vehicle stability. At Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington in Burlington, MA, our certified technicians perform a full inspection of both front and rear systems, measuring rotor thickness, checking runout, and evaluating pad condition to recommend resurfacing or replacement with OEM parts. We explain the immediate costs and the long-term savings of addressing the correct component now—preventing damage to calipers, wheel bearings, and braking efficiency that can lead to higher bills later. We also make it easy to get work started: schedule service online, ask about service financing to pay over time, and review our current service specials for additional savings. Trust our team at Herb Chambers Kia of Burlington for transparent estimates, quick turnaround, and the documentation needed to protect warranties and resale value.
