Do these rusty discs need replacing?

Liverpool.90 · Apr 25, 2015

Just wanted some opinions as to whether these discs need replacing while im doing the callipers and pads or if they will be ok?

They have been stood for about 6 months so im hoping its mostly surface rust that will come off with a good scrub - any tips for cleaning them?

fronts need replacing,best all 4 imo but rears would clean up wire wheel or emery they dont need to be polished pads will do that

As long as it's only surface rust and not pitted personally I'd just put it back together and whizz it up and down the road a few times, just don't be surprised if the pads don't last to long, it won't take long to clean them up back to shiney

I'd replace personally. They aren't very expensive if you look around.

Replace, you know there good for a while then.

You've got it all in bits anyway, eh?

I would replace them too. New discs and pads are relatively cheap from Paddocks.

See;

They should be fine but I'd replace them. EBC have a good line of cheap, quality rotors.
They also have pads, and are quite expensive, but sound well worth it

I'd go with replace....you have them apart as it is and you can't fek around with brakes, its not worth it.
