    Ahhh! Well dont be surprised if those shield expand a bit and start to rub. Took me 2 times to get them to clear after gussets.

    Hmm. Maybe I'm not done then. What are the real advantages to running them? Do they actually protect the rotor or is it just to cut down dust?

    Help take heat off the rotor and protect it. I took them off my last build cause i fucked one up on a rock. They also love to catch rocks and hold on to them

    Holding rotor heat is not necessarily a bad thing with these EBC pads, they don't like being cold.

    Well, got the passenger side all done last night. Didn't take a picture because it's the same thing as the driver side... it was much easier though. No cv axle swap and problems associated with that on this side.

    Actually, I hope that it would be quite the reverse of the driver side.

    Tie rod on the right hand side of the wheel instead of the left. Brake caliber on the left side instead the right. The reverse of what is in the picture of the drivers side. So not the same as the drivers side.

    Not to me. To me it sounds like failed attempt at humor #56.

    hmm, thought I was only at 55. Must have mis-counted somewhere.

    Are the ST Maxx's a lot more enjoyable as a DD that the Maxis' were?

    Um yes.
    Nearly silent, excellent road manners, and honestly pretty smooth for as heavy as they are.
    The maxxis are true MT'S so they have all the road manners and noise of an MT.
