I think every USA 9-5 since '06, and every non-linear 9-5 since at least '02 uses the same 308 mm by 25mm thick front rotor. They can be turned so long as the resulting thickness is comfortably above the stated minimum (22mm, I think), but unless they are deeply grooved, it isn't really necessary. Note that the brakes will feel a bit "spongy" until the pad and rotor surfaces conform to each other. And if the brakes pulsate, new rotors are the best way to correct that.
Personally I have had better results with "white box Chinese" rotors than "Name Brand Zimmerman German" rotors.
