just a little pet pev about big brake kits
for anyone interested in getting a big brake kit, this probally wont change your mind, its more of a heads up.
Something I never thought about until it actually happend was......my spare doesnt fit over my 13" brakes, so for the 2 flats i have gotten this winter, thanks to the roads getting severely messed up by plow trucks, you have to take off a rear tire, put on the spare, and then put the rear tire up front.
just a little pet pev, thought i would vent.

Just go to an automotive store, get one of those tire repair sealant and it should help out a lot. Did wonder on my friend's flat tire, but I heard your tire is non-fixable or something after.... that I'm not sure 
She sold her car later and bought a set of cheap tires to replace.... so I have no idea Hehe.

Re: just a little pet pev about big brake kits (junglistgsr)
when you buy the brakes it normally says that you need to have wheels 16" or bigger to fit....i have 18" wheels on my car, so i took my spare out anyways
