"Disc brake rotors usually last so long that many people treat them as 'fit and forget' components. However, manufacturers provide minimum thicknesses for their rotors. Shimano recommends that its rotors, which start out 1.8mm thick, should be replaced when the braking surface has been reduced to 1.5mm."

"Brake rotor thickness is a crucial measurement for your vehicle's safety. It is important to know your vehicle's minimum brake rotor thickness because if the rotor is thinner than the minimum thickness, it can be dangerous to operate. Thinner rotors are lighter in weight and less able to absorb and dissipate heat."
