I know two mechanics that use them and they recommend them. They just happen to be cheap too.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqPnPjN7iXE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the roads dry out properly I will give it a go and get back to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't really baked them though but they seem to handle a modest workout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
