Only way to test it is to take it apart and inspect it and then install it and run it on the car.

When you take it apart as far as I know youre looking for corrosion, warped/damaged wheel, etc.

The only problem I've ever had with the opti is the rotor flying into little pieces and that was clearly distinguishable by the rattling of the pieces when you shook the opti.
