Anyone ever turn Baer rotors?

Was told to do it even though Bare said no.

Any input appreciated.

Thanks

I had my 15" drilled and slotted rotors turned about a month ago. No problems with it as long as whoever is turning them knows to take it very easy on the cuts. You gotta take off just a little at a time.

I was told that the disks are surface hardened and once they are turned, the hardness is gone.
Have you worked them hard in the last month?

I was at the dragstrip last Friday and hauling my 5400lb truck down from 90mph on them. Still works great!

Went and did mine, have to wait and see what is the long term outcome.

I had mine fronts turned about 6 months ago. Only issue was finding a shop that could turn a larger diameter rotor. Some shops are equipped for standard rotor sizes only. But you're already past the finding a shop issue.

Performance-wise, no issues.

i turned a set of z06 vette dilled rotors a couple months ago and they are still doing great for the customer. just make sure whoever turns them only take .001 or .002 off of them at a time. anymore than that and the bit can catch in the holes and make a big mess out of your high dollar rotors and and expensive lathe.
