Sorry can't go into deep detail car is still on the side of the freeway as of now. I had wheel hub bearing noise for a while and my brakes started to act funny 3 days ago.. Today I was driving doing 70mph and my steering wheel suddenly was shaking like hell, then about 5 seconds later my front passenger wheel smoked up and locked. That is all the info I have as of now.

Thanks for anyone's input.

What makes noise?

prly can turn it, not a mechanically locked wheel, prly. I got 90% on a brake problem.

My wheel locked once, I ignored the brake warning. I paid for ignoring it, my piston went thru the pad and got seized with the rotor. I'll try find the pic. Check to see if your pads fell off (lol I know it sounds stupid) but mine fell off and the piston went to the rotor and locked the wheel.

Sorry I couldn't "Help Quick" ya, I just saw the thread today.

Those rims are TIGHT though! (Are we still saying that?) Dude, you should "Sunset" (already got em named for ya) all your rims and be flossing at the next car show! Forget about get your car "Murder Out"'d, that is played out, like Kid n Play Kick Step. Just get yo rim "Sunset"'d.

Since someone brought up sunsets (not gonna name names), check out the double rainbow I caught this afternoon. I was planning to keep it until tomorrow but it got away. But do have the pics to prove it.
