cant beat that.. free springs... and it would be kewl cus i can get them interchanged for warmer colder months.... alright. after finals ill make a plan to drive over there... its like a two hour drive i think.

 

Anyone else already sick of the people who think that just because it's snowing they need to drive 30 under?

 

yep, took me all of the drive to school to get annoyed with it. There isn't even snow on the roads!

 

warming up the car and about to drive in it now, shouldnt be too bad.. hopefully i dont spin out again, there is not enuf snow to drift 60mph into.

 

I got all kinds of "are you insane?" looks from people on my way to Kent today for passing them at the legal speed limit while they were going 35 in a 55.

It's like people forget that it snows here every year and lose the small amount of driving ability they had before.

 

Don't have pics on me, but if you're seriously interested, I could get pics.

I'd say that 2 wheels have like 80% left... and then the other two have 50% left.

 

i think i remember you trying to sell them once before.. i saw pics of them when you had em on... im seriously interested, but my parental units will say some ****, ill just say i got them as a christmas gift hahahahahaha. but a two hour drive would be kinda kewl. BUT im not sure about them fitting in the trunk... but yeah ill look at my calendar and figure out the best time, im trying to get tint in the next week here also.

 

If you put down the rear seats... all 4 will fit. I've done it 2 or 3 times with my car now.

haha nice yeah wow all those ppl interested and no one came to get them? so you are still goig to sell them for 400? even if i come to pick them up? i guess thats ok.... since you are giving me SS/SC springs..

 

oh wait.. it says 300 picked up... worth the 2hour drive for sure.

 

there is nooo way im getting those wheels anytime soon. check it.


yeah just had this ccheckd today at NTB so idk where to start throwin my money.

 

looks like a good chunk of cash. hows the snow treatin everyone?

 

snows treating me real nice, im stuck in my house cause i cant drive the balt. couldnt even go to work.

 

Drew if i was you i would get those wheels bro, if anything get brakes and rotors and thats all you should need for awhile unless there is some major problem with the way your car drives.

 

Just got new tires on the Grand Prix, so snow's not a problem here, although it does suck at work. I work at a car dealership, so everytime I got to grab a car, I gotta clean all the snow off the damn thing first. It's a real pita.

 

hasnt stuck to the pavement around me. but the grass and everything else is covered somewhat

 

My SS is horrible in the snow, the GTP handled much better. This winter is gonna suck.

 

Got winter wheels for the Volvo 16x6.5J ET43 5x108 steelies "murdered out" Gonna mount Blizzak WS70s on them

Going to put the WS60s back in the subie as well.

Evo's too low for snow.

 

I can't even tell what half that says... but their pricing looks ridiculous. I could fix that crap for a fraction of the cost... I have before on my own car.

Trans Fluid - $50 at most... probably don't need.
Brake Fluid - $5 maybe... probably don't need.
Front Rotors - $160-$220... probably don't need.
Rear Rotors - $150-$200... probably don't need.
Front Pads: $79
Rear Pads: $69
Sway Bar End link can be had from $50-$150

Most of that stuff, you shouldn't need on an 08, yet. I think that shop is just trying to make some money. For the rotors, you can probably get away with getting them turned. I've got stock LSJ rotors that I'll give you for free if you buy the wheels and tires, actually. Used... but I'll have the turned before you pick up the wheels and tires.

 

I agree with this assessment. They are trying to take advantage of you.

 

How many miles?

 

I meant to ask that too.

 

That is why I stay away from NTB, everyone that I have talked with has had trouble with them. Drew, have you ever done a brake job? It is not really that hard. I did two this year alone. I even painted the calipers. What is that Tranny fluid made of, gold? A good filter kit and fluid should not be that much, even if you get full synthetic. I would hate to see what they would charge for my truck or the old car, they both hold 12 quarts.

Get another estimate. The Goodyear store in town is usually good. The owner is a gear head.

Oh, and what snow. I have Blizzak LM 60's on the Cobalt now. Everyone hates me due to the amount of water and stuff those tires throw back. They are worse than my truck with the tires that I put on that thing.

 

I have LM22s. They are the bomb. Getting a set of lm60 for the front, and moving the lm22 to the back.

And Drew, dude....if you need help doing some of the work, I can help you. Gotta' learn to do this on your own; You'll save tons of dough in the end.

And at least you don't have a SC blocking the oil filter cap *shift eyes*

 

I bought pads and rotors for $195. Slotted and drilled.
