Default JZ Alcon Wear

Have JZ Alcon steel floating rotors on my GT3. They have been great but I have no idea how to work out when they are worn out. Anybody know?

they should have a minimum thickness in mm stamped on the edge somewhere. Use a micrometer to measure their thickness at the most worn place on the rotor surface.

Thanks. Good intel. I couldn't find where it is stamped. Does anybody have a pic?

Cheers

If you're using them on the track a lot, they'll probably crack before they "wear" out.
