Disc brake rotor sizes vary, with some measuring 160, 185 or 203 mm. Other rotors are sold at 6â, 8â or other sizes. The brake dimensions used varies per vehicle. Generally, the larger the rotor, the less pressure is required to put on the brakes. The smaller the rotor, the more pressure is needed. Types. Rotors come in two variants.
The brake rotor is a metal disc that is mounted to the hub of each equipped wheel. When the brakes are applied, the brake pads are forced against the brake rotor. If they are not, metal-to-metal contact will occur between the brake rotor and the worn brake pad. 2  This will damage the rotor, which will then need to be resurfaced or replaced. 3  Many brake rotors are not designed to be resurfaced; they should be replaced along with the pads.
