Ok here we go, man it was so cold out today lol. I wore 3 jackets and my winter jacket, 2 pairs of jeans, 2 socks, 2 gloves, my toque and my coveralls that were so tight.. hehe
Well when I was driving today I noticed that none of the vibrations were in the steering wheel.
Well on to my findings..
Well I jacked up the front and couldn’t find any signs of separation, but I knew that my bushings were shot. Didn’t think that much of that cause I knew they were bad. I have a set of energy suspension bushings waiting to go in.. Here I tolk some pics of those to show you.. Also i have no hub centric rings on the wheels..
Got to the rear, lifted up the tire and spun her around saw nutting on the side walls, put the treble light to check out the crown of the tire and BAM, wow I new my tires were bad but not this bad..
Im getting a set of Azenis rt-16 for next season.. But im pretty upset at my self for not noticing that the tires were this bad when I picked up the rims about 2 months ago.. They had pretty bad camber wear but the cords wernt showing like this.. Time for some new rubber.. Should have bought new rears when I put new Fronts on.. Im almost done the Falkin 502’s up front that’s why im going with all new all new rt-16.
Im guessing that this is what was causing my vibration, cause the separation was about ½ inch high. Any else have opinions?. My car is finally parked, I had to drive her to work today cause I couldn’t get a ride. But now she is done for this season.. Im going to miss her ill start here every weekend to keep the juices flowing? Any one have tips on how to store her for winter.. Its gonna be sad seeing her sit there all the time.
Thanks for all the help guys!

P.S I had my fun with her this winter..
