oilspill Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 How much run out is to much? My baer rotors were shaking like crazy, so i put the originals back on. Had No shake. Put baers back on and checked run out. Passenger side little to none. Drivers side had 4-5 thousanths. With stock rotor on drivers side i get no shake at all. Is 4-5 thousanths enough to cause issues??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that was into the hundredths of millimeters. Edited June 20, 2013 by Psychorugby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revhead347 Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Did you check the runout on the stock rotors? Are you running the same calipers on both brakes? If it's the front wheels, the bearings are usually the culprit.Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure its got to be the rotor due to the fact that it shakes with it and doesnt without. Im trying to get it replaced under warranty but baer thinks the pads need to be rebedded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
