My rear brake pads are riding up against the rotor at all times, but I can still easily rotate the rotor by hand and the pistons extend to stop it when I press the brake pedal. Should there be a gap between brake pads and rotors?

It sounds like all's right with your world, brake-wise. Smile

Without the GAP the brakes are ON. MIND THE GAP PLEASE cheers cheers

JOKING apart the gap is very small reducing piston movement to a minimum, ALL is well
