Thanks. Figures as much made the order for the OEMs rears and called it a day.
One of my OEM rears on my gen2 has gone bye bye. Kinda shamed I didn't noticed it sooner as I was thinking this car's doing a fair bit of hip wiggle left turning over intersection for a few months...
I have had one dealership say my pads are done, and another one said they were fine. So what's does that tell you?
I think it's time to start a relationship with a trustworthy 3rd party mechanic....
Do you set your mirrors so you can see the side of your car? If so you need to set your mirrors correctly where you can't and the 3 mirrors forms a panoramic view behind and to the sides of you.

Just put the Conti DW on my car. So only been 2 days which is meaningless in overall scheme of things but generally compared to the discontinued but back then highly rated on Tirerack Fuzion ZRi, I...

You know there's this tiny computer call a ECU under the hood? And that your car can't operate without it? And that one of it's job is to control things so the engine don't self destruct?

A budget might help. Buying too crappy a tire can end up costing you more if you get into an accident. Generally I recommend people buy the well liked tires from the major brands
Typically tires...
You know that if you get the TM3 affiliate discount it's 20% off OEM parts? And you'd never do a brake job at the dealer. They charge more for labour on one end vs my own mechanic for both ends brake...
Were they really OEM stuff? Seems extremely good deal compared to dealship prices.
The hard truth is all tires start becoming dangerous in bad weather before they get to the wear bars. That's true for winters, all seasons and summer tires. A summer/all season that had good...
Tread depth helps you accelerate, stop and corner in snow. After 50% is gone you really aren't getting the full benefits anymore so does it matter?
I say this from personal experience with X-ice...
Do it myself so I just put them on when it isn't so cold yet because otherwise it really sucks.
Don't worry too much about the wear because one they hit 50% down, winters are pretty much spent....
Looks like he was dealing, weapons and substances....

Quite a few VW and Audi owners have now seen similar results. In short, don't brother with the catch cans. It's becoming more clear the...
You get 10 per sticker if you put them on your windshield. 15 if the windshield is 90% covers or more with stickers!
Don't you know a lot of guys have some sort of Freudian thing with their cars and their "mr happy" down there?
I like the manual when the road's open but I am just as happy with an auto when there...
Look for a junk yard part?
It's more like when you can already buy anything you want without having to think if you can afford it, people start looking for crazy things to spend on out of boredom. The real sad part isn't the...
Doesn't matter too much to me. But I use Amsoil signature 5w30 in my speed 3 and it is so called group 4/5 full synth. Reason for it is because if you dig around online there has been some 3rd party...
Stocks are tapered just like your aftermarket. As long as the lugs are deep enough that you aren't bottomed out and not actually tightened onto the rims, you are fine.

No wheels is the solution. Hover that 3.
Point 4 is about the worse advice ever if s/he gets into an accident.
People thinks plowed streets are safe. That's stupid. When there's snow on the ground people all drive carefully. It's when...
How often would you say spin or slide out in the summer? That happens to people all the time in the winter before they get used to driving on ice and snow again. And the cheap steels taking the brunt...
