The rotors on the LH cars are bit undersize for the weight of the car. Theoretically if you remove metal, they'll dissipate heat worse, and warp sooner the next time. However I have had no problems turning the rotors on my Intrepid; have done each once, with no recurrence of the warpage. If you work on your own car, taking them off and having them machined at Pep Boys is just fine, costs about $20 and an afternoon's time.
If you have to pay $90/hour for removal of the rotors and machining them, the price of the parts is less important.
It is very important to torque the wheel nuts evenly to prevent rotor warpage. A torque wrench, a six inch extension and the correct socket costs about $20 at Sears. Any time, after having new tires put on ANY car, I drive away slowly, loosen every wheel nut, and retorque to specs. Most times the tire store guys will have most of them too tight and a few too loose, which invites rotor warpage.
