Continental Tires

The DWS06s are great all-season tires but are a bit softer of rubber, if you live in the south where its routinely over 100 degrees (even hotter on the pavement) i'd pick something else as a summer tire. I ran them on my 2014 Mustang GT year round and had no issues getting anywhere in the snow.

P.S DWS stands for Dry Wet and Snow and can be determined based off which of those letters are still on how deep the tread is

Pros: great all-season tires, no issues in snow
Cons: softer rubber, not ideal for hot southern summers

Rating 4.0

Will be same here in a few weeks, except Michelin X ice on steels. They kinda look small on the truck to me compared to the XLT wheelset but they ride good. If you have AWD, you will really be loving it in the snow. FWD is serviceable, but can slip going uphill if I have to stop. Torque steering in deep snow too, I have to apply constant corrections. AWD should be much better. There is an efficiency hit with the softer rubber, but low temps make a much bigger impact on mpg I think. Not a worry really, just the cost of doing business.

Pros: ride good, better in snow
Cons: look small, efficiency hit

Brembo Brake discs

For just over $600 and two separate weekends of doing rears first then fronts, I did a complete OEM replacement Brembo brake job. New rotors, new pads, new clips.

Pros: complete replacement, good job

Bendix Brake drums

The fronts seem to have went fine but the rears have given me a fit. Everything disassembled and reassembled in what I would deem a painless manner, until I went to put the tire back on the rear. I tightened the lugs and all of a sudden the wheel became stupid hard to rotate. With just the drum slid on it rotates freely so I ran the lug nuts down on just the drum and it froze up just like when I put the tire on. The other side did the same thing. The old drum rotates just fine. I guess the new bendix drums aren’t machined right, something is off with them.

Cons: wheel froze up, not machined right
Vehicle: Ford
