I changed my brakes about 2 weeks ago. i recently i started hearing grinding like noises. anyone know why? and another question. how come the passanger side brake pads wear down HELLA fast compared to the driver side?

 

i changed mine about a week ago and i noticed that the passenger side was more worn than the driver side too. i don't know why though. just thought i'd share that with you. i don't know what the grinding is, mine haven't done that. sorry.

 

Did you guys change your own brakes?

Usually when you change your brakes your rotors need to be grinded down so there won't be any type of ridges that will cause uneven wear on the pads. As for one side wearing out more than the other, could be a bad caliper or something. You can try and bleed your brakes a bit to even out the flow if fluid to each side.

 

yea resurface your rotors before putting on new pads.... the last time i did my brakes i bought cheap *** pads from autozone and then a couple weeks later started eating at my rotors.. don't cheap it out with brakes

 

Yea theres where i bought them from too. Freakin cheap brakes. Wheres a good place to buy brake pads.??

 

RRM

Fox

 

I need to get them now. Any good places in Portland,Or?

 

If I knew any good shops from back home I'd let you know, but it has been a while now... Any slotted rotor (Brembo/Powerslot) and Axxis/Porterfield pad combo will work well together.

 

You can get cheaper rotors elsewhere, as well as the pads. THey are 90 dollars through RRM, you can get Axxis Ultimates for 50 dollars other places.
