brake issue??
#11
If I am reading this right you have turned the rotors 5 times?? Usually they will take of about 40 thousanths each time they are turned if they are warped or grooved real bad. This means you can only get usually 2 turns at the most before the rotor is below minimum and needs to be replaced.
Also, make sure all the lug nuts are torqued to the exact same ft-lb. Since the wheel holds the rotor onto the hub assembly if one lug nut is tighter than another the rotor may not be square on the hub causing some vibration when breaking.

get the NAPA Gold rotors; IIRC they're the same as the Brembo blank rotors. By the way, before you start buying stuff, make sure that ALL of your bolts (including lug nuts) are tightened, just to be sure

Sounds like it may just be time for new rotors. We always use Wagoner from Oriellys but in the past couple years they have started making them in China. Still a superior product to their lower Brake Best line as far as I can tell. I am sure the Napa rotors are good as well.
