Hey everyone, Been a while. I have a chiming noise when I make left turns from the front right wheel. As i turn I get ching ching ching ching, then gone as it straighten out. I had the wheel bearing replaced back in April. Any ideas?

Well, I replaced the rotors and brake pads, sound is gone. Yay! These with Powerstop ceramic brake pads. Next I want to paint the calipers and back drums.

After driving for a couple days I see a huge improvement in braking. Less brake fade and rotors stay cooler. I would recommend doing this to anyone, it was pretty simple to do and well worth it.

Wow, they look NIIIICE!
If you don't mind, how much did they cost? My breaks are starting to squeak, going to have to get something new soon I think.

I got them from Brakemotive on Ebay. I wasn't expecting the best out of them but was surprised. it was $140 with shipping. Came with the 2 rotors and the powerstop brakes. Been on the Tek close to a week now and after the break in, they rock.
