Brake Rotors Show Uneven Wear?????

[jconnolly1119]

I recently bought a 2006 300C SRT8 that has about 500 miles on it. While looking through the SRT8 forums I noticed that JMATT has some pictures of his cars rotor wear (at 2500 miles) that looks pretty irregular-- and pretty bad. After seeing his pics I went outside to check mine and mine seem to have the same irregular pattern------altough the grooves aren't anywhere near as deep as his.

After seeing that I came over here to this forum and noticed Dave Zeckhausen suggeting to someone with warped rotors to try bedding the brakes. My question is " will bedding the brakes also help with what appears to be the uneven wear I am seeing?" I've never owned a car with Brembos so I suppose I should follow his advice for bedding them anyways, but i want to make sure that my rotors don't continue with the unevenness that i am seeing. I really want to make sure I'm doing the right thing for my brakes and if bedding them won't fix the problem.........what will?

I just posted this suggestion in the other thread about SRT8 brake wear. My suggestion is to try it. It should be done with a new car anyways.

Thanks for the link. I'm going to go do this tomorrow morning for sure.

Let us know if the bedding helps.
