My .02, pads are not covered by the warranty as they are a regular wear item, kinda like tires. I wouldnt reuse pads, didnt when I replaced my wore out rotors (which came in wrong, which I noticed after I removed the old, didnt mark left or right so I installed the old rotors and new pads, which I again replaced when I got in the correct rotors). If your'e interested, I like the EBC HHs the best out of the stockers, Carbonne Lorraines, and Galfers.
