What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing removes a thin layer to restore flatness and reduce vibration when the rotor thickness remains within manufacturer limits.
• Replacement installs new rotors when damage, minimal thickness, or heat-related warping makes resurfacing unsafe or ineffective—common for high-performance 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT applications.
• Mercedes-Benz of Draper recommends OEM rotors for performance and longevity; choosing the correct option can prevent uneven pad wear and extend service intervals.
