Are Used PP1 Rotors Worth Anything?

[ratio411]

I swapped my pads and rotors today and the rotors aren’t bad at all. I was going to toss them, but it seems like a waste.

Are they worth anything?
If so, what would you ask for a set of 4?
They could probably be used without resurfacing, but personally I would have them turned.

$10 each?
(This is not an offer for sale. I am just trying to determine if they are trash or worth a couple bucks.)

Thank you!

Recycle... Thats what I did on my daily driver when I did them a few weeks ago... Local trash place has a metal scrap pile they come pick up a few times a month I threw them on...

Thanks guys!

I will leave them on the corner for the scrap guys. They pick up metal from the curb. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t being wasteful. It sounds like they aren’t worth anything.

Another option would be to have them resurfaced and keep them for next time.
You can take a micrometer and measure their thickness to see if they are suitable, they should have their minimum thickness stamped in them. Although it's harder and harder to find somewhere that will turn them.
Or, yeah, just scrap them...

Yeah, new generic rotors are cheap, but I probably would have resurfaced these if I didn’t want fancy rotors instead. I don’t know they are actually worth the extra money, but I sprung for drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic pads. I guess I will find out.

The rotors look great and have never been turned. The picture actually looks worse than they are, and these rotors are thick as heck. I have done my own brake work for 30 years, and never seen rotors this stout on a car.

Its a wear item so probably not much. How much can you get per pound at the scrap yard?
