    1. Runout limit (with the disc rotor attached to the vehicle): 0.04 mm (0.0016 in) 
    2. Runout limit (just the disc rotor): 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)

  3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by shifting mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by one hole.
  4. If runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car brake lathe. ("MAD DL-8700","AMMCO 700 and 705" or equivalent.)
