Everybody ready for the snow yet?

[scotthidley]

I just put on new brakes, and snow tires. Just over 38k on the car, the front brakes didn't have much left, one of the rears was almost down to the metal, the other had a bit left on it. I still need to adjust the rear calipers a little bit for the parking brake. I put new brake fluid in as well. I just have to change my spark plugs and I should be all set.

lovin' the rims for the snow tires...but isn't it a lil' early? please?

 

[scotthidley]

Yeah it's a little early. But since my original tires were done for, I put them on now. The brakes are brembo rotors up front, ctek pads all around. Just before coming to a stop, I here the fronts grind. My Baers with Hawp HP+ pads don't even do that.

I got all-seasons with my new rims, so they should do 100% better than the HR-IIs I had on there before

I don't drive every day, I'm walking distance from school, so I should be fine (2thumbs)

I dunno, it's 68 right now. But I'd guess we'll be seeing freezing temps overnight in a week or two.

 

[scotthidley]

Even with a heater in the garage, I'd rather work on the car when it's relatively warm out
