I just picked up some Carbotech pads and I want to install them tomorrow. But Carbotech instructions say if you used a different pad on your current rotors that you should replace or resurface your current rotor. Well I have slotted rotors so they can't be resurfaced. What should I do? I have some Stillen J-Hooked rotors but don't want to use them yet. My current rotors only have 3K miles on them with plenty of life. Does it really make a big difference if the rotors are not resurfaced?
