So my Tundra is gonna be due for brakes pretty soon and a service guy at my local Durango, CO Toyota dealership said I only needed new pads since the rotors looked fine. I started doing som price research as Toyota wants to charge me around $300. A few local places quoted me $250 which I guess is reasonable but upon calling a Grease Monkey location, as I have a coupon for them, the dude on the phone told me that the new “brake standard” is to always replace pads and rotors even if the rotors are able to be re-lathed. He didn’t recommend relating rotors ever. Has anyone else heard that? Replacing just the pads is a heck of a lot cheaper than replacing rotors too! I want to do what’s best for my truck while being mindful of how much I’m spending and hopefully not being taken advantage because I’m a woman. Thoughts on just replacing pads?
