Subject: Re: 17.IX.19 by teebee on 2019/9/18 1:32:49 Starting to gather parts for my winter projects on 007. I ordered new brakes...pads and rotors/hardware. I went with stock Z51 replacements. They came in today. I'm going to replace the shocks as well... I'll order those at a later date. Leaning toward Bilstein HD B8s. With 55k on the clock, you'd wonder why I am replacing the brakes, but I've noticed the rotors (front in particular) are developing ridges and uneven wear. This spring, I'll be ordering new tires. The ones on 007 are nearing the wear bars and are now 7 years old (according to the date codes). The sidewalls look just fine, as I clean & treat them regularly, more on the outside, but I remove the wheels and tires at least once a year to do just that on the insides. Michelin AS+3 ZP are the ones on my final cut list. I've liked the Firestones' but, they are not an all season tire, and they have been discontinued. Other projects may be in line, I just haven't finalized any other upgrades/maintenance items. |
