You normally would never need to resurface the rear rotors on this car, we only resurface the front unless there's something really abnormal.

Pros: only resurface front

Cons: something really abnormal

During my last service, I mentioned there was possible rocks or something rubbing in between the pads + rotors on one of the corners. They diagnosed and machining the rotors fixed it.

Pros: machining fixed rubbing

Cons: rocks rubbing

Mileage: 65000 km

You are being taken for a ride. 7 mm is the run out for Honda/Acura. I own a 2001 accord, and a 2004 crv, and have never had to replace the rotors, or calipers.

Vehicle: Honda Accord

I had this when I fitted ebc discs on my Cupra. It's went on for a few hundred miles but then went away. I think it's something to do with the grooves. My thinking was they maybe had a little lip or something that eventually smoothed off.

Pros: noise went away

Cons: initial noise

Just run em’ after you grind it off. For a daily I would never run drilled. Noisy, water intrusion points, eat up pads, spider crack at the drill holes from water hitting a hot rotor, and you’ll be lucky to find a shop to turn them once they warp which is going to happen.

Cons: Noisy, water intrusion points
