| Lol damn. I did bed my brakes in a little when I first put them on (in the fall). I basically did about 4 60-10 runs but there was too much traffic so I stopped. Is it too late to bed them all the way? |

I THINK you can redo it, but sounds like it's been a while. If you do new pads, though, and machine the rotors, I'd guess yes you can. |

I got drilled and slotted rotors and I think I heard somewhere that I can NOT resurface drilled and slotted rotors. I hope I am wrong though. |

| They MIGHT be cut-able, BUT if they're worn down a little, machining them MIGHT just cut out the sluts, I mean slots LoL |
