You got a doctor's note coming your way for 2/1. Should I say you were ill because of a rare Bavarian swine flu?

I'll ask again. Any of you slotted discs users find that the slots wear pads quicker than drilled rotors?

got them from alex. the rotors look great. haven't weighed them yet. supposedly these are a tad lighter than oem so we'll see.

sharky threw in a set of caliper bolts


and a thomas train on the other box which my kid was quick to grab. j/k


there's a sticker that says right or left front. so i can't possibly install them on wrong side.




will put them on next weekend as my shoulders are killing me from snowboarding exercise yesterday.

Great looking disc. Take more pictures since they will be beat to death on 2/1

lol on Thomas the train. Little boys love train including mine. I already went to the train museum like 10 times in the past month. Too bad we don't have a motorsport museum
