Bought 2 extra cheap rotors from proparts usa for the rear on my teg a few weeks ago. $20 for a pair, $20 shipping though, so they weren't so cheap. But yea installed them everything looks fine but car squeals and scratches like crazy when driving. I'm pretty sure its because the rotors are rubbing against the pads, which is normal but they shouldn't make so much noise right? The surface of the rotors look a little bit different from my stock rotors I took off. Could it be because the rotors need time to break in? Or is it that I just bought **** *** rotors? Anyone every buy from them before? Saw them on team-integra as a sponsor so I thought they would be good.

 

Did you bed the pads properly?

New rotors require a nice layer of brake pad to be deposited on the surface.

 

That's what I was kind of thinking, that it would take time for the pad to wear the rotor a little bit or as you said it would take time for the pads deposit brake dust on the rotor so that it wouldn't squeal so much. By bed do you mean place them in properly?

 

the above is true, also, some pads like antisqueel on the back of them. if you bed them and still have squeel. antisqueel on the back of the pad often helps.

 

might make some noise

Simply stated, bed-in is the process of depositing an even layer of brake pad material, or transfer layer, on the rubbing surface of the rotor disc.

For a typical performance brake system using street-performance pads, a series of ten partial braking events, from 60mph down to 10mph, will typically raise the temperature of the brake components sufficiently to be considered one bed-in set. Each of the ten partial braking events should achieve moderate-to-high deceleration (about 80 to 90% of the deceleration required to lock up the brakes and/or to engage the ABS), and they should be made one after the other, without allowing the brakes to cool in between.
