Chase, hit me up and I'll show you how to do the pads. If you have the necessary tools, it'll be no more than 30 minutes to do all 4, taking your sweet time

Haha cool thanks. I imagine it wouldn't be that hard either. It's ridiculous how much some places charge for a brake job. Plus I hear those lifetime brake places use cheap pads composed of more metal so your rotors wear out quicker

I wish I could fix my other car by just replacing the pads. I have to take it into Meineke to get my front rotors resurfaced (hoping this is the only problem since my steering wheel shakes when braking at high speeds).

You probably have uneven pad deposits on your other car.

Take the rotors off and take them to Kragen (or auto store of your place). They will resurface for you cheap.
