grease/lube on rotors
Let me start by saying i don't want to heat up the discussion or argue. point made...
ok
i have done enough brake jobs to know that if you get grease/lube on the rotors whether it be from your hands or from guide pins or from bolts/bolt holes, it does not increase the stopping distance by more than a few yards, which is hardly measurable because your tires do not grip the same on cement vs asphalt or wet vs dry or from one stop to the next....its called brake fade on repeated stops. You could stop faster with some grease/lube on your rotors than you could on wet pavement (wet pavement can more than double your stopping distance). thats all i have to say.
