Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on a 2026 Honda Prelude. Front rotors typically handle more braking load because weight transfers forward under braking, so they often wear faster and may need replacement sooner than rear rotors. Rear rotors contribute to balance and stability and sometimes house parking brake components, so their wear patterns differ. At David McDavid Honda of Frisco our technicians inspect both axles and explain which components need resurfacing versus replacement to maximize safety and value. We highlight dealer trust factors like OEM parts, factory-trained techs, and warranty coverage—repairs performed at our dealership help preserve warranty eligibility and deliver consistent results.
