I do over 60 days on my E46 Stoptech BBK before the rotors are anywhere near min thickness.

If the runout is .0006" that is 6 ten-thousandths of an inch you would need an extremely accurate jig and mill to improve upon that. The cost would also be astronomical.
Correct, they aren't done yet.
It was recommended that I get some spares on order, so I did.
I just decided to mount up the GiroDisc and to make the ST rings the spares.

To many things to splatter into at Sears Point if a rotor were to let go, so erring on the side of caution.

And dang, that is a fun track!
Highly recommended!
