If you have really warped rotors and drive long enough with them warped it will mess up your wheel bearings.

well just think about it, all that shimmee-in' will cause the bearings to move side to side mroe than they can/should, it will cause more heat and eventually burn off the grease, and then you can kiss those bearings bye bye
I just can't comment on hearing about damage being done bacause of warped rotors, nor can I dispute it if someone say's it's possible. But I'll tell ya one thing for sure, it's annoying as hell, especially when driving in the mountains, I'd think you'd want to fix the warpage just because of that.Originally posted by ACCORD EX

ya get those..the'yre freakin cool!
just a question, why did your rotars warp in the first place? before putting on new stuff. check out your calipers, brackets and stuff. if your brakes are draggin even slightly then your rotars will get too hot. and with them hot it only takes one puddle to Eff them up
I've found it's real easy to warp honda brake rotor's, my 88 crx rotors were warped, and the 89 civic HB, and my wifes 4th gen rotors are warped, but not really very badly.Originally posted by pimp86LX

My wife is really hard on her brakes and kept warping the rotors. I finally stepped up to aem brake pads and that took care of the warping problem. I left them warped for a couple of months and when I did fix them it screwd up the bearing. I had to have the bearing replaced because of it.
thanx guys ! i think i'll go with the brembo !

You can get a pair for around $100
