Good morning everyone.

Winter tires shipped yesterday. Should be home by tomorrow.
I'll take some pictures.
Following with the trend. Put the "MOUNT" inserts and my tires coming already
"MOUNTED" and balanced.

What's up folks?

With all of this mounting I think this thread should be tagged NSFW.

Hey Phen....so are you proficient yet with that new equipment?

I'm not being trained, I'm telling THEM how I want it to work. It's better than training. Hahaha.

I've got quite a bit of MOUNTING to do soon. Anyone want to join me?
...

Brake rotors and calipers should arrive today. Snow tires will go on when I do the brakes. I went to Autozone in Milford and they didn't have the caliper paint kit. They had the paint rattle cans but only in silver and black. I'm thinking bronze would look nice. Ben's gold was sweet too but I don't know if I need that much bling.

Damn...along the way I didn't realize you bought new calipers as well. For some reason I kept seeing pads/rotors. Hopefully these will last you a bit longer.

Small can of Rustoleum paint is what I use on all my cars calipers. Cheap, no mess and easy to apply, and lasts a long time. Plus you can choose from a large variety of colors.

Last a long time?? Sure if your car doesn't move.(poke)

 

[altspace]

Haha, no really it does. For instance I applied it on my Integra. I drove 100 miles a day and it was perfect when I traded it in. If that's not a true test of durability I don't know what is. Besides, I do drive a ton of miles in my 8. Just not daily driving, but I do go out often anyway. My poor MS bumper is proof of that.

On second thought, who needs snow tires anyway? I mean, its not like I'll be able to forgo buying lift tickets when I go skiing this season.
