    I wouldn't have "throw away" rotors turned. Rotors aren't made like they were back in the day. Just buy new ones as they are meant for one time use.

    This is what on their site about turning them

    Wait you already have EBC slotted and dimpled rotors? I must have missed that. I was referring to cheap rotors you buy from a local auto parts store.

    That's probably a safe bet... try turning lock to lock while it's in drive and you're holding the brakes.

    Glad to hear that, really didn't want to have to replace the rack as well.
