Try 3 ABS stops from 80 to 5 MPH in a row, let us all know how they work after that.
OH, bring a fire extinguisher, you'll need it...
I've performed multiple < like 5 consecutive > abs stops from speed <70mph> to burn them in. No sweat, the hotter they got the better they stopped...:shrug: what's your point?

I have not upgraded rotors. I just can't see spending $400 extra for a daily driver with stock rotors rarely tracked. That's what would not make sense.
I'll spend for more expensive pads when I get better rotors.
These pads have worked for me quite well for nearly a year and there is plenty of pad remaining, in fact they hardly look worn at all. They stop every bit as good as stock and they cost $39.
I only started this post to let guys know there is a practical alternative to spending half a grand on two of the tinyest brake pads I've ever seen.
I'll answer questions if you have them.
I'll report how they're doing or if I experience any failure.
You got a problem with that ? It's called penis envy, see a therapist....or a surgeon, no matter to me. -poke-
