THE REAR BRAKES CREATE A SUBSTANTIAL RESIDUE THAT IS NOTICEABLE OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AFTER EACH DRIVE. THE REAR BRAKES SQEAK AND SEEM TO BE WORN FROM THE GRINDING SOUND YET THE DISCS LOOK FINE. THE BRAKES DEFINITELY ARE FAULTY AND THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 17K ON IT. I HAVE ALSO GIVEN GONE THROUGH A TIRE AND SOON NEED TO REPAIR ANOTHER ONE FROM SIDE WALL DAMAGE AND IT IS AT THE SAME CONTACT POINT THAT THE WHEELS COME TO MEET THE OUTER TIRE. IT IS SLICING INTO THE TIRE BECAUSE OF HOW IT LAYS ON THE TIRE. SO THESE ALL MAY BE RELATED BUT THE REAR TIRES ARE NOT RIGHT. I HAVE A 1.8 SEL 17'ALLOY WHEELS WITH ALL/SEASON TIRES. THE SOUNDS COMENRANDOMLY BUT NOT WHEN BREAKING IN AN INCLINE OR FROM FAST SPEEDS.
