Can someone tell me the minimum thickness it is recommended for brake rotors- 8.4 variety- before they're unsafe to use?

Cheers,

Second opinion anyone?

Tas,

From memory, the minimum thickness allowed is 8mm, there are a number of places to get these and I belive that the ones that I got for the Moke were 10mm thick.

If they are the ventilated rotors it is much more than 8mm. More like 18mm. Mine measure 20mm I think.

Yep, I was right, just did a search:
