it states very clearly why you go from 60-20. No offense, but you don't know enough about the process to assume you need to go faster. Speed creates heat and excessive heat can be an issue.

Also, you're not doing yourself any good without a clear road. If you want this to work you have to do it the right way. Go for a weekend drive?

And no, you can not use old pads with new rotors or old rotors with new pads. The very process you're trying to accomplish when bedding the brakes is because they need to be married together to work appropriately.Either have the rotors turned (resurfaced) or buy new ones or you'll just end up with poor performance and brake dust built up in the grooves from the old pads which could take forever, if at all, to work its way to a good connection.

If you can't spend $12-$15 per rotor to have them turned, maybe a BMW isn't for you.
