ss brake brake pads and rotor question...
I have a 02 gt and i just replaced the rotors and pads with SS brake company rotors and Hawk brake pads. i noticed that the front rotors are only wearing on the outter half. the rears are wearing fine. no shaking or grinding. stop really good. im gonna bleed them tomorrow and see if that helps. I didn't crack open the brake lines themselves so i didnt see it necessary to bleed them. anyone have any other ideas as to the cause of this? thanks for the help.

possible caliper slides not working correctly, making the caliper twist when brakes are applied instead of sliding

Not sure what you mean by "outer half" of rotors.
Do you mean ONLY on the outside portion of the rotor itself? As in uneven wear of rotor? You won't need to bleed the brakes if you haven't opened the lines, but certainly worth it to upgrade your brake fluid. I am currently running DOT4, but am getting some Wilwood 570 installed along with a new rear-brake proportioning valve up at Griggs this week. Jazzer

yeah just the outter portion of the rotor is wearing. both side of the front. there was nothing out of the ordinary just your routine brake pad change. the only thing i can think of is that the rotors are uneven. idk
