Do you have to turn the brake rotors every time you change the brake shoes

R M’s question:

Do you have to turn the brake rotors every time you change the brake shoes Thanks,”

Answer:

No, only change the rotors when they are either warped (with the brake pedal and steering shaking when braking hard) or if they have large grooves in them. And I advise not to turn rotors in modern cars. The rotors are just made cheaper these days and often warp when they are turned on a lathe. Just buy new ones, they have come WAY down in prices since many are now made in China.
