Brake rotors are subject to a lot of heat and wear. After a period of time, they warp and have to be "turned". turning the rotors actually makes them thinner so they won't last as long as they did. Everytime they are turned, the thinner they get. There is a point where they are too thin to safely use. That point is stamped on the rotors and it is illegal for someone to turn past them that point. Rotors are not expensive and your brakes are the most important part of your car. I wouldn't skimp on my brakes.
