I read about brake bedding when Squid posted the procedure on another forum. When Nissan provided a new rotor design for the Titan, I decided to give it a shot.

Much of my commute is braking for curves, (some marked as low as 10 mph). I think compared to someone that drives on freeways ... that actually move at 65 mph, I probably brake at least 10x as much. Of course many deal with stop 'n go freeways and the hard braking associated with that, so their brakes get a good workout too. Anyway, 25K-30K miles and no problems with the brakes, so maybe equivalent to 250,000 miles of brake use for some!

Can't say for sure that it was the bedding that provided this level of service, but doesn't seem to have hurt.

I'll always bed the new brake rotors and pads ASAP. Thanks Squid!
