Back in the '70's BMW used to recommend that from time to time you apply the hand brake (with the button depressed, so it does not lock the ratchet) on and off while driving at low speed. This would "break in" the brake shoes inside the rear calipers. I still do it now and then, if for nothing more than to clean off the shoes.
