Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear brake rotors serve complementary roles on your 2018 Honda Civic, and understanding their differences helps you prioritize repairs. Front rotors take most of the braking load because weight transfers forward under braking; as a result they commonly wear faster and may need resurfacing or replacement sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors often last longer but can still suffer from warping, scoring, or corrosion that affects overall balance and stopping power. At Larry H. Miller Honda Boise in Boise, ID, our certified technicians measure rotor thickness and runout to determine whether resurfacing is safe or replacement is required. We use OEM-spec parts and precise machining when resurfacing, maintaining manufacturer tolerances for smooth, quiet braking. If replacement is needed, we provide transparent pricing, explain the long-term savings of using OEM rotors, and outline warranty coverage. Check our service specials and schedule service online to get your rotors inspected promptly.
