I recently ordered new KVR Cross-Drilled front rotors and Mintex A/F Street Pads from Sp Motorsports. I went to put them on and noticed a broken wheel stud(@!#$). After replacing the stud I was able to change out the pads and rotors and while I was at it I went ahead and painted the calipers.

i freaking love the way that looks, i usually hate those rims but in your case its a thing of beauty

Ok thats is nice but you HAVE to remove the speed clips. When putting on custom wheels you must remove these. Custom wheels do not have a recess for them like stock wheels. Meaning your wheels dont sit flush on the hub.

I did not realize that and you are the first one to tell me but I will sure remove them. Do you think they might be causing me the little virbration that i am getting?

Yes I see it all the time at work. We get alot of come in for vibrations because the wheels isnt seated properly. Many people dont know about this

[CATerina]

Side cutters usually and a flat head

How'd you get them off to replace your rotors? That should tell you how.

Clips are gone and it rides alot smoother now thanks.

and a hubcentric ring also helps

 

[01cougardb]

The goldish copper ring on there is a hub centric ring.
