Im not tellin the kid to change his rotors every time...he asked what he should look for also since hes going to do his pads.....if his rotors are bad heck get new ones while hes at it...not gettin new rotors wen u need it and jus puttin in new pads totally defeats the whole purpose. heck i could less how he maintains his car....

i think we all got a little sidetracked and started debating why and why we shouldnt change rotors every time we do a brake pad change.....no point in arguing over Lemmie's car....the damn kids gonna do wat hes gonna do regardless of what we tell him....

I think it's probably time to change my pads as well, I'm thinking some Akebono ceramics should do the trick.

huh dont use a c clamp to press the piston if you have ABS never heard of this and i have been doing this for 6 yrs you can use a c clamp i ussly use my hands to press it in or they have a tool that cost like 5 bucks to press it in and also you should change the rotors if you do the pads you will get uneven were on the pads if the rotors are off and premature were if you do this i sugest getting some cheepo pads cause you put new rotors on you will feel a hesitation if use use the old pads but you can use anything on the piston as long as it is pressed in and for good pads get WAGNER THERMO QUIETS GREAT PADS LESS DUST AND GOOD STOPING POWER
