[QUOTE="006, post: 7041295, member: 5015"] That's for the pads. The rotors seasoning process is different. You cannot season brand new rotors with hard stops. What you did is heated the rotors up too much that their metallic composition did not get to set properly and as a result, you have created uneven spots on the rotors that did not achieve a gradual cooling process and throws the metal into thermal shock. Metal expands when heated. If you do it too soon and too fast, some areas will not uniformly heat and contract. I recommend driving the car normally for the first 2-3 days in order to season the rotors and for the internal oils to burn off properly which results in an even/uniform metallic setting. [/QUOTE]
