grinding
alright well i took my rim off today and i figured that i would see where it was grinding on something but i found out that it wasnt grinding on anything.
i spun the rotar without the rim and it made the grinding noise. its all rusted...grrr and im not exactly sure what a brake pad is supposed to look like but i believe mine is just metal on metal.
any idea what it is?
oh and it doesnt just grind when i brake it grinds when i go slow. its so annoying
Thanks

u dont need to get brembo rotors or hawk pads, its a total waste of money if you dont have a fast car or if you dont race... just get stock replacement stuff at auto zone or advance auto and do it urself for $150

Bull**** to a dealer. Go online get yourself some Brembo rotors and Hawk pads and yank em out.
That is what happens when you don't replace your pads enough... now you ****ed up your rotors.

dont get autozone's lifetime warranty pads, they are too soft and will carve into your rotors. you will have to replace your rotors after about 2 or 3 pad replacements. i suggest getting your replacement stuff from napa. they usually have good stuff there
