RC5+ bedding in....?

[slindborg]

No instructions, next to feck all on their own site bar "minimal bedding in needed" etc...

Sooooooo is the mintex/PFB method ok or is there a different way for the sintered pads?

Theres no requiring to bed them in IIRC, just drive normall for a few miles and its done (i run the RC5+s), great pads

 

[slindborg]

Score

What pads are you running at the back? (I know the consensus is to use oem stuff as the rear does feck all etc)

Untill they fall apart 6 months down the line....

Get them hot but do it gently and than let them cool down fully as well. Simples

happens to literally everything if used very hard. I've seen examples of pretty much any pad you can think of breaking up, but if you look at the number sold, there are many many worse pads than these. I've had EBC pads break up and fall out of the cailper twice while I've been driving.

I dont think I trust these pads as they dont stink like the PFB97's and 1155's have done lol

If i was a track day nut and theyfell apart after a ribbing on track for 6 months then fine, but mixed road driving and moderate use. They are crap. Awesome stopping power but dont justify the pricetag imho. Wont be buying them again.
