uneven pad wear - rear brembo
my mate took my rear calipers off the car tonight to re furb and spray them. I dont know what pads were in there but they looked terrible. Really uneven wear with a massive lip on them. ( the side of the pad that sits nearest to the studs ). No wonder they were making a noise, has anyone else experienced this? is it normal? (standard rear brembos and discs)

How old were the pads? I just changed mine for the first time in a few years and they were worn uneven. With the price of replacement pads, might as well just change them.
