Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD: the front rotors handle the majority of braking force because weight transfers forward under deceleration, so they generally wear faster. Rear rotors support stability, parking brake functions and balanced braking, and on four-wheel-drive trucks they can still be heavily loaded during towing. Because front rotors often see higher stress, technicians focus inspections there first but always compare both axles to maintain balanced stopping power. Herb Chambers Chevrolet offers promotions and loyalty benefits—check our service specials—and our service advisors can help you choose resurfacing versus replacement based on measured rotor thickness and driving needs.
