Default Bent Rotors

If the stearing wheel shakes at high speed braking, we can say that one of the front rotors is bent, correct? If so, how do you tell which side it is or both?

thanks again,

If it only does it at high speed it could just be your abs. Its posible. Does the wheel jeark hard in different directions when you break or is it more of a steady pulsating?

you'd say its warped, not bent.....i dont think your wheel would turn if you had a bent rotor and if it did it would make some nasty noises when the bent part made contact with the caliper and bracket.

your rotors are most likely warped, you should be able to get them resurfaced for cheap.

yeah it's a steady pulsating.

who can resurface in SoCal? How much is a fair price?

thanks once more,

To hell with resurfacing...

Just buy a new set from Autozone. You want the front rotors from a 1995 Acura Legend...

Someone elaborate on which rotors should be bought from Autozone? The 1995 Acura Legend? What's the difference between the ITR one and the Legend. Do they even make a rotor for the ITR from Autozone?
