Werd... but when taken care of they are the bestest! Mine looks worse than most here but at 217,xxx miles it is super reliable still. I expect at least 500,000 miles out of this car or it will be considered a lemon imo.Quote:

I did a full parking brake rebuild last fall or this spring, I can’t remember which. My adjuster wheel was just a big, seized, rusty mess ([emoji1589] Canada). The only part to give me any grief was stretching the second spring once the first one is in place.
Not having to find perfectly level places to park made it worth the effort.
Thanks! It was enough to change my dedication! Even looking at E90 Ms next and not really considering an E92 [emoji38]Quote:

It is definitely worth the hassle.
What's the kit?Quote:

Man, she looks like she is ready to tear up some icy roads!
How's your Pixel 3, btw?

Not quite... needs sway bar end links, an alignment, and desperately needs brakes front and back. The rotors have massive lips on the edges!Quote:

I absolutely love it. I like small phones, so I got the non-XL version, 128 GB. I am pleased with the size of the Pixel 3 non-XL; a lot more screen real estate compared to my original Pixel, while still being operable with a single hand. I haven't had any issues with it so far, and don't have to charge it at all throughout the day, even if using GPS. The battery truly does last all day with my light-to-moderate usage.Quote:

Hmm [emoji848] may i ask why you choose to go staggered for the winter?Quote:

Because I got those winter wheels with this car. I am planning to go square once I'll have to replace tires.Quote:

Lol I have 225/45/17 on 9" wheels...Quote:

I have 225s on my 8.5J fronts (CSL reps), albeit mine are only 40 sidewalls. Nate runs 235s on 9.5J.Quote:

You made me think about spacers Botond.

Unfortunately I don't have any shots showing the angle down the side of the car, so this is the closest I've got:

What setup are you sitting on? Front looks goodQuote:

Bilstein PSS10's. I have to use spacers to clear the Wilwood BBKs, and figured 12.5mm pushes the 68's to right around where my BBS CH's are naturally without them (et35), which look perfect to me. Rear fenders are rolled.Quote:

You actually rolled? I've been weighing the options and think i might go the dremel cut and anti rust paint route.Quote:

This is probably the better option. It's been done for a long time now, so I haven't bothered to cut it off.Quote:

Maybe if you gave the dremel yours? [emoji848] I reckon grinding on an angle wasn’t enough. [emoji2958]Quote:

When I came out of Costco a guy in a Focus ST had parked a couple spots away. He was walking around my car checking it out from all 4 sides, but only glanced at the Stinger as he was coming into the store :biggrin
The Stinger is still, a Kia. They have gotten a lot better looking, but they aren't even close to performance.Quote:
