braking with the ecs (stock) slotted rotors and mintex red box brake pads combination? more noticeable when wet from washing or rain.
i'm really hoping it's just feedback from the slots and not warped rotors (rotors only went on about 2k miles ago) and i haven't really done anything that should or could have caused them to warp.

Default I would get them checked just to be sure, if anything

you could send the rotors back for being faulty.

it's the Mintex pads, not the rotors.

Default suggestions for a good low dust street pad? that do not squeek or squeel like the oem pads.....

i have to admit that the mintex pads and slotted rotors eliminated the noise issues i had with the oem set up.
just curious, what is it about the mintex pads that causes the feedback feel?

Default I actually had my rotors replaced because, "supposedly" the Mintex pads warped my rotors. (more)

So the dealer says. I don't know if it was bad rotors or Mintex, luckily my dealer replaced them.
