[QUOTE="Dinosgt, post: 15897768, member: 169099"] Thanks very much - Ill tear it apart today. Yes - I am saying that it looks like only part of the pad is wearing on the rotor which is given by the lack of the black coating being removed across the face evenly by the pad. Either the pad is wrong (but looks to have the same dimension as the OE) or the caliper is misaligned and not applying pressure across the face evenly. I am with you...I am not sure how the calipers could be installed wrong since they are so basic (they are the stock caliper), and its wearing exactly the same (but incorrectly) on both sides of the car. I see the streaks as well, which lead me to believe they are not bedding right. Maybe I am not applying a hard enough pedal? Curious - how were the installed wrong on your rouse? There really isn’t any play in the mounting holes for them is there? The fronts seem fine, but I notice that they don't seem to be transferring material as evenly across the face as I would like, but maybe that will change with wear in. Will share results once I tear it down again. Thx again [/QUOTE]
