    thumping/knocking brakes

    Just overhauled the brakes with new brembo oe rotors and pbr/axxis xbg pads and now i can hear a rhythmic thumping when braking (relates to speed) in the front brakes!

    Noise only occurs when braking.


    what could be the problem? installed and reinstalled the pads with plenty of resistance in the retaining springs

    I also installed richardkieths drophats but since the problem only occurs when braking i don't think it is the cause.

    any help would be great!
