cracks in rotors, are these normal? (pics)
not as obvious of a question as the title leads, at least i think.
washed my car yesturday and then rotated the tires. i noticed on the drivers front rotor only there are tiny cracks pretty much the entire way around the rotor, right about in the middle of where the pads contact.
interesting thing is that after i put the wheel back on and went around the block the cracks were gone. we couldn't find them at all, nothing but a smooth (and now rust-free) rotor surface with no cracks.
what is going on? is this normal or is this a sign of the rotor starting to crack and it should be replaced?
these are C5 brakes on my f-body with z06 pads.
