Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The braking system on a 2018 Honda Clarity relies on both front and rear rotors, but they perform different roles and show wear differently. Front rotors handle the majority of braking force—typically 60–70%—because weight shifts forward when you apply the brakes. That means front rotors commonly wear faster, heat up more, and are more prone to thickness loss or warping. Rear rotors, while subject to less braking force, work together with the vehicle’s stability systems and parking brake; uneven wear or neglect can still compromise overall braking balance. At Larry H. Miller Honda Boise in Boise, ID, our factory-trained technicians measure rotor thickness, check runout, and inspect pad pairing to ensure even, predictable stopping power. We explain whether resurfacing is safe or replacement is required and provide clear, itemized estimates with OEM parts—often at prices that beat independent shops when factoring in warranty coverage and long-term reliability.
