So far, around Kansas City, the only place that turns rotors is O'Rielly's. Advance doesn't and I don't think Auto Zone does. Personally, I wouldn't let an auto parts guy turn my rotors. They don't even them up, they tend to cut them to the minimum specs, then let them go. I'd make some calls to some of the good repair shops around where you live and find out who has a brake lathe. It's not hard to learn how to use it and they might let you do your own (with suitable bribe )
