Dirty Rockstar Posted July 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Heres the story.. Truncated, lol.. For Mike.. I was out gettin socks from Target.. It was abot 7:30-8 PM.. I cam in, and turned into an aisle to find a parking spot.. I turned to the next one, moving toward the store.. I stuck my nose out to turn, and she was still at the cross walk over 1000 ft away.. I start to go, and before I know it, theres a buick LeSabre (92 I think) in my left side.. Going 40 through a parking lot is a bad idea right? Her excuse: The sunb was in her eyes, so she couldn't see me.. So you speed up, is that the case you bitch? Her car was totaled, I got to drive home.. Hence the markings all over that denote my Lumina as the Buick Killer.. lol.. Gonna have a decal made of tat one.. muah.. I hope this helps out in figuring out what the hell happened tro my baby.. :?

dbtk2 Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 What I found when I pulled the left rear rim off.. "What the fuck?" I exclaimed.. Doin brakes this weekend.. If you think that rotor is bad you obviously haven't seen mine. I need new rotors SOOO bad. I have them, but I just can't put them on. I have tried NUMEROUS times to put new rotors on, but it hasn't really worked out, I just can't get the old ones off. I'm actually going to try for the 4th time tommarrow becuase they are really bad and I really need new ones, and since I need a new caliper anyways I may as well try to get the rotor off again.

Shawn I ra into the same problem.. You need to bea the fuck out of the rotor to get it off.. Mine were bonded to the hub assembly by a rust colored compund.. lol.. I got my hammer out, whacked it like a billion times per side, and threw the rotora acrosas the back yard almost striking the red roller skate! Good luck shawn!

Brian P Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Call me old fashioned but I like the Lumina wheels better on a Lumina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 I prefer Hanes over Fruit of the Loom. Fruit scares me and Micheal Jordan kicks ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted July 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Call me old fashioned but I like the Lumina wheels better on a Lumina. Yea.. But I LOVE the 5 spke look.. And Cutty 5 spokes are pretty non-descript.. I only wish that there were more Alumininum wheel options for the 90-94 Lumina.. I prefer Hanes over Fruit of the Loom. Fruit scares me and Micheal Jordan kicks ass. lol.. Hmmmm... I think I get it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsgrntld187 Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 What about the 5 spoke Monte rims from 95-99? Or the 5 spoke Impala rims? Those might look good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted July 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 What about the 5 spoke Monte rims from 95-99? Or the 5 spoke Impala rims? Those might look good too. I couldnt find those in decent shape/in my price range for the life of me.. If I get a set. then yea, Ill put them on, and save the Cutty 5 spokes for my 6000.. After I get the L67in that bitch, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patgizz Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 looks like its time to put a new car on those wheels. i wouldnt sink any cash into it, the rockers and 1/4's look like theyre about the have some monster rust holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted July 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Thats true.. But as soon as I get the bumpers, it goes in to get painted.. I have the person lined up to paint it..The only guy I trust.. As soon as the rockers and bumpers are on, it goes in for paint.. I have too much in the car to let it go.. Dammit..!! lol!
