What about the gasses that buildup between the pad and the rotor limiting contact and causing caliper deflection? That's all just imaginary? True, you don't NEED crossdrilled or slotted rotors for the average joe. But if you constantly exceed 100+ MPH, autocross or road race. Crossdrilled and or slotted rotors might give you the edge you need. Numbers don't lie - when comparing alike brake systems one with crossdrilled and/or slotted rotors, they always come out ahead stopping faster - why is that?
Sorry to hear you had a bad experiance with them. It could be you got a bad batch of brakes, or they were installed incorrectly, or you're just a bad driver???
With all the motorsport use my Camaro sees' I still had the stock brakes last 113,000 miles - and that was only having pads put on the front, and turnin' the rotors, rears still have 50% pad life left, going strong at 126,000 miles.
Warped rotors deals more with driver input than the quality of brakes. I can warp a 5,000 dollar brake system if I tried to - does that mean they are bad???
Slow consistant pedal pressure, that gradually builds, Don't stab or jab, you're not boxing.
Also, if you don't season your brakes, don't complain about life and wear. Preventive maintenance!<hr></blockquote>
Hey Bro, READ correctly, I said "UNLESS". "Unless you are driving cross-country or multi-terrain event". WTF are you atacking me for? I made a suggestion, if you don't like it, post your comment in a more civilized way AFTER you read what someone wrote, and UNDERSTAND IT! No, im not stabbing or jabbing, i'm posting a comment!
