More Brake Questions
Thanks for all the info on slotted/drilled brakes! I take delivery of
my '05 in about 2 weeks and am curious regarding ideas/advice about "braking-in" new brakes. I've heard that the manual recommends no heavy brake usage during the initial break-in period for the car. I'm assuming that is probably sufficient. However, I have had people refer me to the Baer method. My car comes with the Z51 package and I don't know if either method is better or if there are other methods people recommend. http://www.baer.com/Support/TechTips.aspx?TechTipID=4 Also, this is truly the first new car I have to break-in. Any specific recommendations regarding this. I have to drive it about 500 miles to get home...is this sufficient? I fully realize the can-of-worms I'm probably opening with this question, but I want to make sure I do things right. Mucho Gracias, Holo |
