Good point. Some info in here about bed-in http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/tech/tec ... ?techid=85
nice find
this one would be for me. it actually says the same thing on the box too
HAWK

After installing new pads make 6 to 10 stops from approximately 35 mph with moderate pressure. Make an additional two to three hard stops from approximately 40 to 45 mph. Do not allow the vehicle to come to a complete stop.When completed with this process, park the vehicle and allow the brakes to cool completely before driving on them again. Do not engage the parking brake until after this cooling process is compete.

You should step up to a performance rotors for the driving you do any how.
This is what I'm going to put on as soon as mine are gone.

i was definitely thinking about upgrading the rotors to the ones you pictured. just looking for a cheaper alternative as of now since money is tight and my current rotors are just fine. some nice beefy rotors like that will come in due time
