over heating rear rotors and pads
#12
Just installed the front rotors and opads, along with a k&n air filter last night and drove it into work this morning. it still has a bit of a smell to it on all four tires but no glowing or smoke.

did you clean the rotor off with brake clean as some companies put a coating on them to keep from rusting and if not, that will burn off with a strong odor
I found using a 80 grit sand paper ( after cleaning the rotor ), i would scuff up the rotor surface as well as the pad to make them seat faster.
