Perfectly normal man. Pads are always in slight contact with the rotor, and not having perfect contact all around is normal too, as no brake rotor is perfectly true. To be honest, I expected more resistance from your wheels; there's absolutely nothing binding on your brakes. Clean bill of health man. It could be cat piss, or some other weird thing in there. Wash the car thoroughly, and inspect the pads. You can see the outer pads thru the wheels, but need to remove the wheels to inspect the inner ones. I'd do that, and you can torque the lug nuts properly after that, as sometimes they're overly tight. I put 85 ft/lb on mine. Good luck, and don't worry; everything seems to be fine with your car. |
Thanks, I thought that too since there was no resistance I could feel, and since both wheels did it. I think I'm over-reacting and hyper-sensitive. I've also read that the PS2s give off a burning rubber like smell when warm (even from just regular driving), it's possible it's just that (

Thanks again!!
