Curious as to what the common practice is of worn rotors. While mine aren't too bad, I was wondering if our rotors should be replaced when worn, or resurfaced? I haven't noticed much discussion here...

To drive around the island would probably take 6-7 hours. I've seen it all many times. When jungle trekking I use my AWD Subaru Outback. Beautiful thing is the majority of the roads are twisty.
