Default Turning a rotor?????

I have a friend w/ a 98 v6 accord. If anyone has a manual can you please tell me what is the thickness of the rotor before it needs to be replaced. I am unsure if I can turn them.

Every time I've taken rotors to be turned, the shop looks up the minimum thickness in their book or on their computer. All you gotta tell them is what car it comes from.

Call a shop and ask. I work at Firestone and people ask all the time. It only takes 5 minutes.
