Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Understanding the difference between front and rear rotors is key to maintaining safe, consistent stopping power on a 2023 BMW 4 Series. The front rotors handle a larger share of braking force and heat because weight transfers forward during deceleration; that means front rotors typically wear faster than rears. Rear rotors handle stabilization and supplementary stopping power and can last longer, but both axles must be inspected regularly. At Richmond BMW in Richmond, VA, our factory-trained technicians measure rotor thickness, check runout, and evaluate pads and calipers to recommend resurfacing or replacement based on OEM specifications. Choosing Richmond BMW ensures you benefit from certified diagnostics, genuine BMW parts, and transparent pricing—so you save both now and over the long term by avoiding repeat repairs and protecting braking system components.
