i took my civ to the dealership for a 15,000 maintainence checkup and they said everything was fine. among other things they rotated my tires. When i got back i quickly glanced over my wheels and realized that now my backbrakes (misisng disk brake?) are bare. its weird it looks like its missing the silver shiny part and only showing the rusty part (. excuse my car termology ignorance. is it suppose to be like this? i honestly dont remember my back wheels looking like this before i went there. im confused and i bet this post probably sounds confusing too. haha

Are you serious with that response? If you're gonna bash him, at least answer his question as well. for you..

At the OP, that looks normal to me. Those parts tend to get 'rusty' pretty quickly since there's so much friction applied on the surface. Take it out and do some braking and you should notice it disappear, but only for a little while.

 

X2. Those look normal to me.

But those are some pretty damn big pics though.

 

Is your car a Si ?? They look like rear drum brakes....

 

hey OP you have an LX or DX right?

everythings normal if your car is an LX or DX, becuase those are Drum brakes not discs

if it really is an Si, then you've got a big problem.

 

yeah thats definately drum brakes. I highly doubt they accidently removed and forgot to replace your brakes just to rotate the tires. Considering none of that comes off for that process.

 

yeah i have an lx.. thanks everyone! sorry about the pics.

 

Never mind
