Replacement brake rotors

Does anyone make good replacement brake rotors for a 1998 conti that will be flat when it's new. I was thinking maybe a performance type replacement rotor will be flat and stay flat. I installed some standard rotors but the car still was slight pedal pulsesation. Am I safe in assuming that 1/2 thousanths runout can still cause pulsesation?

The maximum allowable front disc brake rotor runout is specified to be 0.003 inches ON VEHICLE. This is the combined hub runout and rotor runout.

The combined runout may be vastly minimized or even eliminated by reindexing the rotor on the hub. Maximum hub face runout is 0.002 inches.

An on-car lathe can minimize runout by cutting rotors parallel to the direction they rotate. Ford and several other vehicle manufacturers recommend on-car rotor resurfacing for fixing runout problems.

Surface finish can also be critical because it affects the friction characteristics of the brakes.

Lastly, and often overlooked, is the disc brake rotor thickness variation. The maximum allowable thickness variation is specified as 0.0004 inches, less than 1/2 of one thousandth of an inch.

Thanks for the info. I tried to reindex and the best I could get was .005 runout. I don't have a way to check thickness. The shop would change about $125 to do on car lathe rotor turn and it is possible they may warp latter down the road anyway. That's why I was thinking some new performance rotors would be the way to go.

rockauto.com just ordered all new rotors and pads $155 shipped all raybestos product.

Napa's premium Raybestos rotors kick butt!

My 98 conti installs BAER RACING brake kit.
Its work is good.

Lol, awesome!
