Peeling of tires due to rub against struts...

[chry*bmb]

My friend had found a link to a website with GTO defects. Strange enough, this link was found with video, and pretty damn important! Just rotated tires and can see a slight rub. Time to change out struts!! Not to mention, my diff was just replaced with a brand new one...

Apparently it's not just the struts. I found this link. Guess I should look before I leap...

Car problems is not the reason to jump off the bridge, dude.

All I can say is good luck with the dealership on this, most of them barely know how to work on a GTO. Had mine in for various suspension problems, they would fix one problem and create two more. Needless to say when the service letter came...well I let GM/Pontiac know how "Great" their techs are. Save yourself the headache and get some pedders. I did and don't regret it.

I like the jumping off bridge comment :)

You are SO right about the dealer. So willing to help, but not a damn clue. When they replaced my diff, they totally screwed up my exhaust. Everything was lined up perfectly and square. The shit if off center now and that's so not cool with me! My friend who put in on is WAY NOT HAPPY! He's as anal as me when it comes to that and I really don't want some dealer tech touching my car.

I DO believe pedders are the way to go. Haved looked into that before, but have been sidetracked by school and summer stuff!

Thanks guys! Keep the posts coming, it's great to hear others' experience.
