Default SON OF A !@#$%

This really sucks!! A few months ago I replaced my front brake pads with Axis Metalmaster pads. They seemed alright until recently A grove in my rotor appeared that was about 1/4 in wide and about an 1/8 in deep. So naturally I took it to get checked out. Come to find out that some how or another a chunk of metal got into the pad material when it was getting made. So now I have to get all new front pads and rotors. The left front rotor is trashed and If I am not mistaken you are supposed to replace rotors in pairs just like the pads. So I am gonna need to know some recomindations for brake upgrades.

They are gonna pay for this crap!!

That sucks, sorry to hear that.

I have Nissin brakes all the way around, I love them to death. Not only me, but Nissin is known for great parts, esp. for honda's.

ditto...

And Brembo doesn't make blanks for the rears of the Ludes anymore. Only the front.

I do like the rotors and pads though. Inexpensive, but good quality, and they stop like a mo fo.
