Maybe I have bad luck or I'm doing something wrong but any advice would be appreciated. It plain sucks having to machine the rotors everytime I fool around in the snow.

Anyone else have this problem? Happens to me on all my cars.

I dont use brakes either, but I can thank the EDL for applying the brakes for me, maybe I'll try pulling the ABS fuse next time.

Turn of the brake assists and your brakes won't heat up.
