You do that at least once a month.

Least once a year.  My shop gave me a loyalty card. My 10th visit is free.

Getting my wheels balanced and rotated.

Just discovered I have yet another bent wheel when the mechanic wheeled it back over from balancing. It's definitely recent as it wasn't bent a couple of weeks ago. Fuck you Connecticut DOT!

Just ordered all the hardware for my rear lower camber arms so I can finally install them.   Also ordered a set of upper camber arms.  My commute to Ship is a bit further than it was in Bethlehem (40+ miles a day vs 1 mile a day).  So I wanna get her aligned so Im not goin thru tires every year.  So gonna install the camber arms and then find a shop out here to align it.

Thought about downsizing my wheels. Discovering a bent wheel within a month of replacing another is fucking annoying.

@ Charley: Thanks man! Took me about 4-4.5 hours. Damn OCD. But it included completely removing the brackets, hanging the caliper as to not put strain on the brake hose, taping off everything that shouldn't be painted (bleeder valve, brake hose, bolts, etc.), covering and masking off the car, cleaning all brake components real good w/ brake cleaner, taking a wire brush to the brackets/calipers, first applying the adhesive promoter and allowing to dry, then about 3 coats of Dupli-color caliper paint. *wipes forehead* But in the end, it came out perfect...as I would have expected

@ Z: Man... I'm sorry.  Cry That has to be frustrating!

Very. The way the roads are "fixed" up here is sickening. There's "speed bumps" on the fucking highways I travel on. It'd be cheaper for me in the long run to downsize rather than keep replacing/repairing these wheels.

The roads are like that up here too. Every time they patch a hole, it snows, and the plows pull the patch work out, and it's worse than before..

Packaged up my CF gas door to be shipped today..

what size wheel and tire are you running, again, Z? Could you possibly fit a larger ratio sidewall without ruining your drop too much?
