Actually, at my store we do. I asked my boss and apparently it's a local thing. But we reward our customers who buy the more expensive pads and rotors. Anything Wagner, we warranty for WARE. It's not because of complaints, it's because we take good care of our customers who spend good money.

Wagner Thermoquiets and Wagner rotors are warrantied in full.

It's really at the discretion of whoever is behind the counter, some places do it routinely and it probably works out for them with repeat sales. Thing is, you cant run a business like that and it just ends up making people think they have free brakes for life. I'm just pointing out that this isn't an official thing and that you aren't entitled to free pads. But if you find a place that switches them out then more power to ya.

We try to get our commercial customers to do it because in the end it benefits them, and we get credit for the parts when they bring them back. You're right though... Idk if any other places outside of Rochester actually do it. We only warranty our Wagners for lifetime though. The Wearever Gold's are a one time replacement, and the basic Wearever Silvers have no wear warranty. The idea is, you can upgrade to the better pads and we'll keep you coming back. Customer service is our #1 goal haha.

i did this at autozone before and the more expensive ones they replace for wear, but i hate the autozone 2 blocks from me because no one in there knows sh!t about cars and its a headache, i doubt they care about customer service at all. the lady manager is the WORST person you could ever deal with, but o well.

I once took a BOV to autozone...The guy thought I had alien weaponry in my hand

Damn... A lot of work you have done.

thanks man i still have a long way to go till im done but i won't stop, by the way i love your car it looks amazing you always take such awesome pictures of it, its soooo clean and just love that mirror finish your car is amazing man.

The broken plastic tube is the PCV Valve; you can pick another up at any parts store for about 8 dollars with the rubber grommet it sits in.

Also, the TC rims are looking good; you sticking with white for the final color or something else? I got a set of General Altimax HPs in 215/45/17 trim for about 400 bucks and they're pretty nice tires for a higher performance all-season with good tread life.

cool thanks ill do that still gonna get a \"spare\" valve cover this one had to kinda rush at the end didn\'t get enough coats of blue and also had some old paint so its looking sloppy if you look closely (not like anyone will) but i tried to get that out and it just wont how would i remove that?

yea sticking with white i think blue car white rims would sit pretty nice i played around with photoshop a bit and got this (actually i did one with tires but its on my home computer not work computer ill replace it so excuse the no tires)


Y U NO HAVE TIRES?


hmm i wonder how they\'ll fit if i install the lowering springs and spacers def consider getting those tires like i said im buy 4 new winter tires for my stock rims before the winter starts and then 4 summer tire for the TC rims and thats not a bad price only thing your kinda far, NC is like a 8 hr drive my parents drove down there last year to visit some friends and spend a week.

White definitely looks good against blue; the contrast is really nice.

As far as the tires go, I apologize for being unclear in my last post but I meant I bought my tires for about 400 dollars; $392 shipped from discounttires.com. You could check there for your summer tires. Either way, the car is coming along nicely and you're doing great.

ohhhhh that makes sense i thought you wanted to sell me some. lol. also thanks on the PCV valve 4 bucks at autozone gonna replace it tomorrow.

also it seams that that rear pass side tire was causing a bad shake in my car i had thought it was the spoiler so i drove around without it a couple of days still rumbled so i put it back on today but yesterday because of the flat i switched tires and i noticed it didn't rumble or shake and then on my way back home a really tested it and nothing guess the flat was a good thing cuz it happened while it was already parked not me on the move.

playing some more w/ photoshop now has tires im getting used to PS a lil bit


might aswell throw some spoilerless pics i took on here
