So... you get pad taper and rotate your pads to solve it?
That is not 'flawless'. It is clearly a flaw that requires you to perform additional work to solve.

On my PFC kit I put a set of pads on and don't touch them again until they are worn, and they wear properly. That is what I call flawless. Flawless = absence of flaws

Every single time someone performs work on a car, whether it's removing wheels or pads or whatever, there is possibility for error.


The amount of taper on the Ap RadiCal kit is what I'd expect from base stoptech brakes. If the brakes cost 2k I'd think it's pretty bad. Costing 4k it is unacceptable.

Some people may feel double-dutying a car is too extreme, but that's the whole point of the top-shelf brake kits. And it's something at least one other kit can just shrug off like it nothing happened.
