Hello,
I have a warped rotor on my Accord some where, and after I go to Sears to get the brakes diagnosed for $15 and determine which rotor is out, since I do not own a dial indicator myself, I am planning on changing the rotor. I read some where that the run out needs to be checked before installing new rotors, and I wanted to verify this because I always assumed that since rotors are made for specific applications that the run out would be correct out of the box. Thanks.

I've have never once checked runout on a bran new rotor. As long as you purchase a good quality rotor, there is no need to check runout.
