yes you only need to bed them the first tie you put them on to bond the new pad in (this is from a former indycar driver). thats why race teams usually bed a batch of pads in during test sessions.

you sure you didnt have a rock stuck between the pad and rotor?

vibration comes from deposits on your pad or rotor

Okay thanks. I'm pretty sure there wasn't anything stuck between the two, as nothing came out when I removed the pads.

So what can I do about deposits?

You need to have the rotors machined or sand off the pad deposits with garnet (not aluminum oxide) sandpaper. According to StopTech, the aluminum oxide actually binds with the rotor and can make things worse.

Keep in mind you just can't find this stuff in the stores. Here is a link.
