Foullard , are you proud of still having having 1mm of pad material remaining??? Your photos show an absolutely horrible rotor ., and the caliper doesn't look great either. Why do I think your front brakes need an overhaul as well??

Slotted and drilled rotors are what brand pads? Kinda a waste and they eat pads faster. I run them with hawks pads but only because they were the cheapest i could find and would not recommend unless your doing hot laps all day at a race course.

E brakes seems to of fixed themselves ��*♀

Old rotors were spotted and drilled chinese stuff


New rotors are plain that my brother acquired somewhere a long time ago that he can’t remember. He thinks they’re my old oem ones from 4 years ago but I doubt that. Oh wel. Either way they stop good and are quiet. Life’s good.
