95 Accord - 3 sets of warped rotors.

    Here is my questions to experts out there.

    I drive about 90 total miles a day, in traffic (2000 miles/month).

    The car currently has 90,000 miles on it, and the factory rotors
    lasted until 80,000 miles or so until it warped.

    I have burn through 3 sets of rotors, each set warp within 3 months or
    so. I am buying the PREMIUM after market rotors from Autozone (by the
    way, I only bought the first set of rotors, all exhanged rotors were
    free, but the labor is a pain in the you know what). The rotors that
    are thicker, heavier ones, not the cheaper, thinner ones.

    I tighten all the bolts with a torque wrench, so no one can accuse me
    of impacting the bolts and warpping it that way.

    My theory - the hub got warped the first time, therefore, bending all
    subsequent rotor rather quickly.

    Any expert opinions and SOLUTIONS out there???

    Did you have them turned when new? If so, then you may have other
    suspension problems like worn bearings or joints, causing the warping.
