I need to get some brake rotors machined down 1/8" in diameter, is there a place local that can do this?

Most napa's will machine brake rotors, they also machine flywheels.

i dont think any napa, sears, ect could do that. Yeah the can machine the face but not diameter. Your best bet is going to look for a local machine shop there should be plenty less than an hour drive from you.

Agreed...

Most will not touch them for liability reasons. You may be told to take a hike by a good number of shops before you find one that will.

What is this for?

Cool, thanks for the info guys, Im probably just gonna get a new set of rotors made though from Coleman Racing. colemanracing.com They can make them any size I would need. Im just gonna send them mine and say make them same size but 1/8" smaller in dia. I think they get about $350 a set for custom rotors.
