Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The front and rear rotors on a 2013 BMW M5 serve distinct roles. Front rotors do most of the braking work because braking force shifts forward during deceleration; that means front rotors typically wear faster and are subject to higher thermal stress. Rear rotors assist with stability and parking functions and often see less wear, though corrosion or uneven pad contact can still require attention. At Herb Chambers BMW of Boston, our technicians measure rotor thickness, runout, and pad condition on both axles so you get a complete picture of braking health. We explain why a front rotor may need replacement sooner, how rear components factor into ABS and dynamic systems, and when resurfacing is a safe, cost-effective choice.
