skimming willwood discs

[GTI_R]

my R has willwood 4pots with bells and rotors
i think they are the 310mm with the gold bells (only JUST fit behind 16's ) so sure one can tell me what size they are

i'm getting a horrid vibration on braking and i think it's the discs .

can i have the discs skimmed and fit new pads? or are they throw away items ?

And if i need to buy new replacement where would i find them?

could skim discs however if its really bad could be something else! check hub runout?

Rally Design sell Willwood rotors

how old is the kit?the seals seem to fill up with crap from the road and brake dust quicker than other kits so could be the pistons sticking a bit

it's about 5 years old but only done 10k

id say replace the dust seals on the pistons anyway.depends how hard the car has been driven?if driven hard 10k is around the mileage that you would need new discs rather than just skimming them

i've just placed an order with rally design as on closer inspection there are small fractures / cracks on the disc face
so ordered new discs and m1144 pads
