Default Brake pads and disks?


I just bought a 1996 Honda Accord EX, and it needed a brake job. I put new pads, but I forgot to add new disks.
Which ended with lots of squeaking noise. My question is... Can I wait like A week before I can add the new disks, "Without
having to replace the pads again"

I appreciate the help,

Thank you.

when you installed the pads did you put some anti squeek stuff on the back of them? Also, as long as the pads aren't grooved you should be fine to replace the rotors without doing the pads again

Not a problem! I hope it helps, that anti-squeek stuff is cheap and usually just spray can crap that goes in between the pads and the calipers

you might just need to resurface the rotors,, no need to replace and spend extra money if rotors are thick enough to resurface ..
and NO you DO NOT have to replace brake pads again
