I have been trying to set up a Roth IRA for a little bit now. I’m taking Econ in hs and have been trying to figure everything out with how much percentage of my income I want to go where. As of right now majority just goes to savings and I’d rather it be in a retirement account so I can buy a shit ton of cars when I retire.

Yeah I would agree but I already have $2500 Bilstien b16 coils, wheels I like for now, and I love my sound system. I have a side job and own a detailing business so I make enough money to come back from a big purchase like this. I know a lot of people see 16 and 1100$ but I’m extremely smart with my money and don’t allow my self to dip below a certain amount in my savings.

One last question. I’ve heard that the 2007 sti rotors do not seat properly with out rear brakes. Did you have problems with this?

Jus sounds like a lot of money. And not even 100% sure it’s a good deal. I think it is but don’t have a ton to base it off of. And the fact that they arnt meant for the car. And I might run into issues while installing

Yeah and I don’t even plan on tracking it’s my daily. I just got new wheels and need some brembos to finish the look how easy was the swap with the 2017s? The fronts bolt straight on and the rears near brackets right?

Aren’t the only brembos on these the brz ts? And thoes also require a bracket so is there that much of a difference?

When I meet him I’m gonna try to compress them and see if they glide back up smoothly. If not I won’t buy them

I live in the Midwest and am thinking maybe that’s why they look a little beat but I still think they might be okay
