Memphis area vettes
Changing rotors(Baer), calipers(red), and pads. Also going to chrome wheels(Z06 repros) on my current tires. I want to have it all done at one time and have read way too many nightmares on poor service. Who do you trust in the Memphis area for this ? Thanks.

Do it yourself, thats what i do with all of my vehicles (for the last 25 years!). Its not that hard - just take your time. Do a search on the CF for a good writeup and you can even post for help in the Memphis area and I bet someone would help you for the price of a pizza and some beer. If I was closer to you I would help you some weekend. Good luck.

Hey Jackson, Munford here (just north of MEM).
I too would encourage you to DIY, other than that I would find a competent jobber and have him do it. Choose one that works on higher-end cars and/or newer models. Tell him you would like to learn how to do this in the future and he should let you watch.....learn but also police his work.
Keep us posted and the progress and let's take a cruise soon.

In the past many of our local Memphis Corvette Club members have used the Germantown Firestone for tires and general maintenance. For rotors, etc. I'd be glad to help and show you how it's done ... it's not a hard job at all. Regards
