Yellow Pagids a tight fit
Replaced the OEM GT3 Mk1 front rotors and Yellow Pagid RS29s yesterday, and ran into the same problem as last time: It is a tight fit! Even with the pistons pushed all the way back the pads really have to be forced in there. I do not have the same problem with the stock brakepads (can even fit the anti-squeal shims in there). With the wheels in place, it takes some effort turning them, and it is very noticeable when backing out of the garage.
Last time, I went for a series of short, slow runs before things got better. The brakes would get hot (not race-hot) from just a few miles of driving without using the brakes. I'm worried I'll glaze the pads, has anybody run into the same problem?
