Look at the control arm behind it. Wonder if that person ever changed their oil?

I hear those brakes stay twice as cool as the normal slotted rotors.

Few yrs back, my friend's cousin brought his Stang to show it off and I notice that front brakes were totally screwed up. While driving to dinner, I notice sparks coming out. I told him that he need to change the brake, but he "claim" his brake pad do that on "purpose"

...few days later (or maybe lil over a week), he had to replace whole car. Why? Cuz rotor brew and went straight into the semi-truck.

Seriously, some ppl don't listen and just driving like that everywhere.

People don't understand simple maintenance. That's kinda why I take public transportation aka Train/Subway. I saw someone blow a tire the other day on the freeway. I guess the lady didn't know that her tire was balding.
