Eradispeed Question
I'm thinking of adding a set of Eradispeeds. I like the +1 look for the rears but I noticed on some pictures that they have a two-tone look after using them a while since the pad only hits about half the rotor. Is that normal? I don't really like it and may just settle for the stock sized replacements.

Re: Eradispeed Question (NetJunkie)
You'll get that using the stock calipers and pads because, although the swept area of the rotor increases, the stock pad still only clamps onto the outside portion of the new rotor, leaving the inner swept surface untouched.
This is the reason I stuck with the stock-size rear EradiSpeed. It doesn't look as cool as the larger rear rotor but I didn't want to do any more substantial changes to the brake system.
The +1's do look way cool though. :cheers:
