I would never pour any soda idc what mr wizard says

This

The coke is only a last resort but you should seek the proper method as soon as you can

Was the swerving happening before you changed em tho?

Yea before getting new tires.

Also a couple random times i made sharp left turn felt/sounded like some shit broke or cracked underneath near front driver wheel.

Sounds like it might be cv joint from what i read

If you putting a new battery on you can use vaseline to keep the corrosion away. Also coke does work well and a wire brush but it is a last resort

when youre parking or making a turn, if you turn your wheel all the way to one side is there a pop?

 

[Banginscrew901]

I never used slotted rotors (im cheap) but i do know that slotted rotors have their benefits..what kind of car are you thinking of adding these to?

They look good on the ride and give it that sporty look, also suppose to cool down quicker when stopping. I got em on my ride

@ChicagoFigure
any updates?

 

[Black_Samson]

Slotted and drilled rotors?

Its either one of the other, not both.

Be safe. That is too many points of fracture and failure for my taste.

I looked around fam and from what i see you gonna have to take the tire off.. its too far down to hack.
