Break-In Procedure

To get the most out of your new brakes, follow this break-in procedure:

  • Perform 5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph to 10 mph in quick succession, avoiding complete stops to prevent rotor imprinting.
  • Next, do 5 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph without allowing the brakes to cool. You might notice a resin smell as the brakes heat up.
  • Finally, drive at moderate speeds for about 5 minutes to cool the brakes down before using them normally. Remember, never cool your brakes with water!
