Default Minimum thickness of the brake rotors?

Hello, all

I've been reading most of the brake-related threads and the consensus is that the minimum thickness of the front rotors is 28mm.

I was browsing the Sewell pages today and found that they claim the minimum thickness of the F/R rotors are 26mm / 24mm respectively.

My friend just measured his rotors and it came out at 27mm. Your input will help a lot on his decision.

Thanks.

The rotor has the minimum thickness stamped on it. If yours is a Korean model it might be different from the US models. The rotor's markings are beyond question.

Yes, we do. Although mine is a USDM car. (I personally imported mine) ISF's been available since MY11 model.
