can anyone recommend a place to get brake discs re-skimmed / resurfaced in the west midlands .

also any idea of the cost

 

cheers

the way i saw it, the lip is off the contact area, so getting rid (even sometimes to a VERY slight taper to aid in new pad fitting) wouldn't make any difference. as i said, someone will probably tell me differently lol

 

Ive seen stock discs have a taper thinking about it.

I wouldnt do it that way LOL :lol:

yeah but your not me and i dont have the tools handy :lol:

so were locally then ?

i got mine done in nuneaton . cost me £30 for a pair

was that on the car skimming or discs on a lath ?

on a lathe mark . he also scimmed the centres to make them 100% true . mine only needed a light scim , he quoted £15-£20 per disc depending on how bad they were .

been quoted £115 for on the hub skimming .... my discs are 2 parts alloy hub with steel rotor ... i know a few guys with lathes but i thought it would be best to have them done on the car
