joker by any chance did les schwab put your tires on last. cause they torque wheel lug nut down to like 200ftlbs and the first time they warm up they warp like no other. they did it to my dads old 87 pickup he made them replace both rotors for free.
music ya i look around and that was the cheapest i could find shoot there was one place tha said it would cost $130 to for the same thing as the other shops.

well a lot of companys do that its a safety thing see if your tire falls off you cansue them if your rotors warp they cant get introuble, if you crash its twice as bad. thats why after you have them work on your car you losen up the lug nuts and torque them down to 100ftlbs which i beleave is what your car calls for. warped rotors suck but camaros like yours have really good breaks, but if you have ever drove a old *** car like my 73 the breaks suck butt,every time i get in the 98 i stop really hard cause im use to having to push the peadle to the floor to stop.
are you doing it your selforis a shop doing it for you.

ya a lot of people dont, thats why they end up paying a few hundred dollars on brakes when it could have been avoided. if only they new right.
its all ways better doing it your self you get the satisfaction of a good job done right lol.
just dont make the mistake i made dont buy high performance brake pads they squeak and they put that nasty brake dust every were and it takes twice as long to clean your rims, and inless your racing your car alot there not really necseiasry there just a pain in the ***. but i'm sure you already new that. lol

no coil problems here. Check out a wrecking yard if you need them, much cheaper.
lol, yeah, I'm a band geek. Hence the name musicman.... I had my own jazz band for a while. But we haven't done a gig in months. This is Swingset Jazz, this was the group I put together. This is the only recording I have, we played better stuff. Got a couple offers from recording companies to make a demo disk, but we never got around to it.
I've never heard of warping brakes from tightening the wheels down too much. That's interesting. I'll have to keep that in mind. I always buy the cheaper pads, as I don't use the brakes very often in a 5spd, vs an automatic where you live on brakes. My bonneville warped rotors so often that it was funny.
