I know... What's up with that. Just put in some new Project Mu D1 rear and NS street/race front pads in without resurfacing the rotor. WOW don't listen to the brake shop's BS that resurface ur rotor when changing pads or get new pads when get new rotor... Put it this way. When they say that what they really mean is "Yea put ur money in my pocket when you want to get pads and rotor" lol...

It comes down to making the surface of the pad the same as the surface of the rotor. If they both start out flat, then they will wear together.

I've tossed on new pads on old rotors as a temporary measure, and quite frankly, once the pads "reshape" to the rotors, they'll be fine. It's just not ideal.

If you have good pads, and you don't want to throw them out, then just reuse them.
