almightybmw - good points. It makes me wonder where the OEM pad material lies on the hardness scale.
vtec-e: car has smooth wheel covers, so the corrosion was more from ambient conditions, not really from moisture/rain blowing in on the wind. (At least on the outside surfaces.)
Shawn D: just curious, anything constructive to add?
I wonder how RV owners deal with rotor corrosion (since their vehicles often sit for long periods). It's common to see their wheels/tires covered when they're parked outside, but I suspect that's more about protecting tires from UV damage. Then again, they undoubtedly brake MUCH harder when they are used, and the pad area is larger so would scrub the rust off better.
