I think I'm going to market the GTO tire rotation workout as it is a full body workout. ;)

Just rotated the tires and for all of you who do you know what it's like wrestling the wheels off the hubs. I'm glad last rotation I put some anti-sieze on the hubs where they contact the wheels as they seem to rust overnight. Also just as a side note to anyone who does their own rotations, always check for metal, debris, screws or nails in the tread. I pulled about a quarter of an inch of a broken wood screw out of one of my rears. Wouldn't want that stuck in there at triple digit speeds although it's probably been there for awhile.

All I know is if I win the lotto I'm buying a lift!

Hey I have a question? I always seem to find a lift when work needs to be done but what is the best place to put the jack.

If I remember right check of the back side of the trunk spare cover and it shows the jacking points. Also, at least on my 04, they have cut away the plastic along the "frame" on the front and rear jacking points so the jack can contact the metal of the seam of the unibody. You can feel it too if you just put your hand under the rocker panels.
