caliper stuck

Thanks for the advice, the reviews for stop-tech are great. There is a lip on the rotor thats probaby 1-2 mm thick on the outside. I read somewhere if there is any lip then the rotors need replaced. What are your opinions on that? I appreciate everyone helping me out, I know these are probably stupid questions but I did a search and didn't get any results.

I believe you can't have these rotors turned, but if they are over the minimum thickness and you don't get any brake shudder, you should be fine re-using them. The minimum thickness is stamped on the inside of the rotors.
