The only reason I'm posting this at all is that I know I'm not the only one with the rattle issues. This is an almost free way to at least get rid of the annoying rattle until a proper fix is done. As I stated in a different post, I already shimmed all the window/door lock switches with paper shims and those don't rattle anymore. But I still heard rattling in the door, which went away when I would push hard on the plastic panel right above the faux-leather armrest. My current shim situation is one dime first, quarter slid in behind dime, then second dime slid in behind quarter. A different combination of coins (or shims of other materials) would probably work just as well, but that's what I had in my car at the time and it works lol. I'll try to remember to add a picture to this post later as well. |

They keep the shocks clean. (cleaner anyway) When it rains; the roads get covered with dirt/grime. And yeah, when it snows, they act like a sweater to keep the oil in my shocks warmer. You should think about getting some....

I put a set of Blizzaks on my car today. Road noise is quieter and bumps feel a bit softer now, but that's probably less about the tires themselves and more about the fact that the shitty all seasons that were on there before were down to the wear bars. Either way, driving experience significantly improved lol.
