Black Diamond brakes

Post by NOZ »

Hi guys n girls

I'v just had a set of combi Black diamond 256mm discs fitted to my 16v with a set of their Predator pads. Problem is they feel awkward and have to bury my foot to get it braking. The garage first said maybe the discs are he wrong size but I know 256mm is right. anoher problem is the inner part of the disc isn't wearing at all, whereas the outer edge is :!:

Is this hapening cos their new and just wearing in till the pads get even or is something wrong :?:

Most likely, as With Any New Discs and Pads Fitted, For the First say 250 - 300 Miles They Need Broken in and will feel like they are useless, but when bedded in they should feel alot better !
