So, changed my own brake pads.. Pagids.

Ok, I flushed/bleed the entire brake system twice, to get rid of air bubbles etc. Pedal feel is good, nice and consistant braking. Great bite.

I know these aren't street pads, but are they supposed to squell a little even when not actively braking at low speeds? I put in Pagid rs19 yellows on my current rotors which are above min thickness. Did not place any gel behind the pads.

I checked the temp of the calipers after driving to work, felt slightly warm and even all around.

ps- Wow, braking from high speeds feels really good. The bite on these things is incredible.
