Hello to all members,

i am new here and wanted to get some advice about my problem.

The problem is, i have a little damage on my ceramic brake disc.

I heard that it can be very dangerous but some says that, if its not bigger then max. damage size you dont have to worry about it.

Here are the pics of my disc and would like to get some advice about it ;

Are these rotors used or new?? It does not look too big, but I would be careful, the rotors look like they have some small cracks in the surface already.

 

They are new.
Yes its not big but makes me worry. Arent those cracks are normal for CC brakes ?

 

If those are new, they should not have those cracks in them, those are from heat and wear, which are normal for used rotors, but not new ones. If that chip happened during shipping, I would send them back and ask for a new set.

 

Thanks for the advice. Will try...

 

If you track often I would switch to steel rotors IMO.

 

I would be very careful. Keep a close eye on their condition.

 

The rotor looks perfect and intact, they have those little "marks" on them new. Each and every single one of my cars is fitted with ceramic brakes and they have that. That scuff on the bottom doesn't look too bad. I would still get it checked though!

Best,
YH

 

Yes mate you are right. I checked some brand new ceramics and all of them have those marks.
Thanks for the advices.
