Today I changed out all the pads on my '88 Carrera. All had the same wear pattern on the back side of the pad. The piston has a raised area on the leading edge and slightly digs into the pad metal backing.

The left one in the photo is the outer pad from the passenger front. The right one is the inner pad from the same location.

Is this normal?

Looks ok, eyeballing it. I posted a template to make your own 20 deg. piston alignment tool, a while back.

I have a couple left over that I made... want one?

pm your address I will send you one - give me time to locate them, I put them somewhere

Ed Hughes

The key is how are they wearing on the business side, and are you happy with the way your car stops?

rusnak

Ed, I think those are really great. You should sell them.

Brett San Diego

This is not a scam. You really can get something for nothing. I did. LOL Thanks, Ed.
