Stoptech rotors causing shaking while braking.

I'm having the same issue. Hawk blue pads in route. I'll take pictures later. You can actually see the blotchy black streaks on the rotors.

Will do.

was thinking of taking them off and sanding them with fine paper

I thought about that too but then I don't know how well I'd be sanding the other side of the rotor that I can't see.

Try it. I'd def be interested in seeing if that works. I'll either return or sell the new pads lol

DId 80-20 6-7 times. cruise for a bit then get on them a bit more maybe 100-20 until i cruise for a bit more so they cool down before coming to a stop

I had the same exact issues with the ST60 and Street Performance pads. I ended up getting new rotors, and didn't have any issue with the new rotors using the same pads, using the same bed in procedure of 70-10 about 6-7 times. I could smell the pads when I was down to 10mph.

If you still insist...I'll be happy to buy your wasted, warped rotors.

Pad deposits are a very good possibility if you are using the Stoptech Street pads

Does that really work? That's so damn easy!!
Thanks.

I've been driving with the pads for three days now with a few 60-30mph stops and the shaking is gone when you brake. Although my rotors still have dark streaks and blotches on them I think with a few more days of slower city driving the rotors should be all clear and silver. Honestly Im afraid to leave these things on here long but if they work they work. Ill post some pictures how they look now after 3 days of hawk blue pads

Where did you order the track pads from ? May just pick some up anyways

A few pics. You can clearly see the old pad material is still in there with the blotches

looks about the same as my disks. Where did you order the new pads from? They are track pads no?

[Bx Tpr]

Zeckhausen Racing. Yes they are track pads. I'll get you a part number

I tried finding them online but I couldn't find them for the life of me.

Glad to hear that the Hawk blues appear to be working. Curious if anyone has run them at the track (perhaps this purchase will be good for multiple uses)?

Vibration under braking is def gone. Vibration while driving at 80mph + is back and it's worse than ever. I hope it isn't the rotors. I'm having my tires re-balanced on the wheels as I type.
