Axxis pads brake in period?
Great directions! Thanks  I also did the bedding procedure even though I did not do the rotors. I have 32K on the truck and the old pads were about 80% worn. Question. New pads feel great but don't bite as hard or as fast as the OEM. Will this get better with usage or is this how Axxis pads feel? Thanks all!

This is because your old pads and rotors cut matching grooves into each other yielding consistent 100% pad/rotor contact. Since you replaced just your pads, they don't yet have the matching grooves for the rotors. Give it about a month (or about 1000 miles) and then do the bedding procedure again and they should feel noticeably better.

i would say re-bed the pads. once they are correctly bedded in, they hook up immediately.
do you have a greyish film over your rotors? if you don't you haven't bedded the pads in yet. and it doesn't matter if you use old rotors to new pads... in fact, its easier to bed in pads to rotors when one of them is older with the grooves...
