Stress Factures on brakes!!
Stress Factures on brakes!!
ok guys i know that this is bad but why the hell would they be screwed up allready i just got them 6 months ago i know they are cheap ones but DAYUM they should be more reliable but anyway now for the fun part what combo should i get just slotted or slotted dimpled? and what pads to offset the rotors? i know im going with brembo. i cant get a BBK because i cant upgrade wheels yet but i want good RELIABLE brakes. so suggestions and feedback from your setups would be appeciated thx.
Stress fracture would mean you bent the iron to point of exceeding it's yield strength and it cracked.. somehing you can't do by driving it .. My guess is you have hot spots ... Are you hard on your brakes? I don't think I'm very hard on mine and they;re th autozone special, and also cheap, and have been on for over a year(25k) now. I might be a tad on the lucky side though.
its normal?? but im talking about discount auto parts brakes not really name brand or anything. but as far as it being normal ive never heard of that and if it is bad does it mean that they are wearing improperly or is it just a fact that they get these "cracks" in them?
yea i have been hard on my brakes in the past from spirited driving or highway runs to virginia or jacksonville but i drive alot! ive put almost 50000 on my car in almost exactly one year (march 25 is when i got my car) but ive had these on for maybe 6 months
My old rotors had pretty bad looking stress cracks as well as those dark hot spots. I ended up replacing them, but for little cracks you should be ok as these guys are saying.
I went with PowerSlot rotors and Hawk HPS pads when I replaced my stuff. No more hot spots or cracks, just a good amount of dust
