Just renewed discs and pads on front and pads on rears, tried the accepted rules of bedding in new brakes.....i.e. accelerating to 110, braking like mad, not stopping, and doing it again, and again, etc.....these brakes on the Vantage are that good, they actually made my ears hurt!!!, i think my brain moved, and hurt my ears! Good brakes,,,,

I think the official version is;

Brake from 30mph twice ( to gradually increase the temperature of discs and pads ).

Then brake hard from high speed.
