I'm not talking about getting away from using a spreader. I'm referring to how to get the old brake pads out without removing the calipers. Once the pads are removed I can easily use a brake pad spreader such as:




to increase room for the thickness of new pads. But before that part, I can't seem to be able to pull out the old pads.

I've seen people change pads at the track for a 4 pot brakes, so how are they able to do that?
