Caliper is out of calibration. Either the barrel or the odo needs adjuatment; possibly both.

The mic thimble reading is probably correct. User probably does not know how to read it. The digital has jumped a tooth on the drive train for it.

To make matters worse ... "Min Thickness" = .180

So ~.171 vs. ~.1875 ... take your pick

A 42797-00 is .225 with a minimum of .205

A 44156-00 is .195 with a minimum of .180

From my experience, rotors are done after 3 sets of pads.

I usually just replace pads at a tire change. So they really have a little left on pad. My front rotor was at minimum. Rear was close.

Hey, what's .016 among friends... And they call calipers, "guessing sticks'.

I here ya , but this particular .016 variance is the Wrong Spot ... one measurement would be "in tolerance" and the other, Not so much


Definitely this "Seller" has lost some credibility (with me anyways) ... but I don't normally take the seller's "word" anyway ... they usually don't know enough
