When Should Brake Discs Be Replaced?

Brake discs typically last between 30,000–70,000 miles, depending on your driving style and road conditions.

Common signs that your brake discs may need replacement:

• Squealing, whistling, or grinding noises when braking

• Steering wheel or pedal vibration

• Vehicle pulling to one side under braking

• Visibly worn, grooved, or cracked discs

• Increased braking distance

Common Causes of Brake Disc Wear

• Excessive or aggressive braking

• Driving in wet or muddy conditions

• Low-quality brake pads

• Warping from overheating

• Corrosion from road salt or moisture

• Mechanical damage from debris

Can Brake Discs Be Repaired?

In some cases, minor surface issues can be addressed by resurfacing the disc — a temporary fix that removes minor grooves or warping. However, if thickness is below the manufacturer's minimum spec, replacement is the only safe option.

Technical Details to Know When Ordering Brake Discs

When selecting brake discs, important specifications include:

• Outer diameter (mm)

• Brake disc thickness (mm)

• Centering diameter (mm)

You can install brake discs at home with standard tools. Here’s a basic outline of what’s involved:

1. Jack up the car and remove the wheel

2. Remove the caliper and caliper bracket

3. Unscrew the disc retaining bolts

FAQs – Brake Discs

When do I need to replace brake discs?
Check your owner’s manual, but generally every 30,000–40,000 miles, or when discs are worn, warped, or below minimum thickness.

Do I need to replace both front and rear discs?
Not always. Front discs wear faster than rear. However, always replace discs in pairs (left/right) to avoid imbalanced braking.

Are OEM or aftermarket discs better?
We offer both. OEM discs ensure factory-spec quality. Aftermarket discs often offer improved performance or cost savings, depending on the brand.

Can I replace discs myself?
Yes, if you're confident. Use our free guides or contact our support for step-by-step advice.
