Default Brushed motor question

I just bought a touring car roller for my local track and need a motor for it, and I ordered a new one, but need a spare. I have a monster horsepower stock that quit going a while ago when I had my RC10B4 going, and I might rebuild it. I need to know from the brushed motor gurus wheter I can just buy new brushes or if I need to get the commutator cut down a bit. If it can just go with brushes, can I also get a towerhobbies link to the brushes I need?

Thanks!! (see pics, sorry for quality)

A) Use the macro function on the camera

That said, chances are you can get by without cutting the com but its best if you do.
