Front and Rear Brake Rotors

At Herb Chambers BMW Certified Preowned Medford in Medford, MA, we explain why front and rear brake rotors behave differently on your 2018 BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo and what that means for repair decisions. Front rotors do the bulk of stopping work on most vehicles and therefore commonly wear faster, showing heat spots, grooves, or thickness loss sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors historically see less kinetic energy but can still suffer from corrosion, uneven wear or caliper issues that make them unsafe. Our certified technicians inspect both axles to determine whether resurfacing or full replacement is the safest, most cost-effective option. When we recommend replacement, we use OEM rotors and parts matched to BMW specifications, ensuring braking balance and consistent pedal feel. We also clearly outline the cost differences and long-term benefits of choosing dealership service — including warranties that require certified-dealership repairs and potential savings from avoiding repeat labor.
