2003 Porsche Boxster Roadster S H6 3.2L Braking Rotors - 99635140501KT - Front Brake Rotors - Pair 12.51" (318mm) - ES#2535370

If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong, but this is what I have read from a very well respected Porsche parts seller. I didn't just pull it out of the air.

Think about how thick a pad is. Then imagine a rotor thickness. There's no way a pad can wear about 3/8" into the rotor. Maybe with a paper thin pad and a rotor way past the limits.
