Re: Warping issues (JDM Factor)

In 99% of all cases rotors don`t warp..
If pads and rotors don`t interact perfectly, there will be desposits of Cementit (iron-carbide) on the rotors. This lead to uneven temperature when pads and rotors have contact, what causes the rubbing.

So "warping" (<== which is the wrong diagnosis in almost every case) is not a matter of what kind of calipers you use. It`s a question of breakin in new brake-components.
