FYI, Stoptech says when you can to use used rotors with new pads and used pads when changing to new rotors.

I use an air grinder but put a scotch brite wheel on it instead of the grinder wheel.

Sure, that is pretty typical for the bed in process of both rotors and pads. You still want a clean new rotor and a clean (non glazed) set of pads.
The deal is that if you have both new, one or both could wind up heating up too quickly during bed-in.
So if you change both your rotor and pads to new at the same time, bed in one at a time. Once they are prepped, you would go with the new rotor (bedded) with new pad (bedded)
Anyone know the part# for the PFC-11 pads for the Stop Tech calipers?
I just found PFC01's for $294 per set.

Hold the phone. I have been e-mailing the guy. He does not have stock. He also said the price is old.....no shit. I told him the 01's were no longer being made and he had no idea. He just told me that price is below his cost now. I ask for a refund. Move along, nothing to see here.

Obviously I never installed those brakes yet.
While doing motor #2 install, I saw where the front rotors were questionable for TWS in Sept. Looking to install the brakes now. Still leaning towards the Carbotech's for $206 or so. I have had very good luck w/ them for a very long time. Wondering if anyone opinion has changed since I started this thread.
