As far as I know stainless steel does not rust, it pits. You will not see any visible oxidation, like with mild steel, but over time it may develop small pits in the surface. This happens in very harsh conditions and takes quite a long time (depending on the SS composition).<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by schwett:
just about all metal rusts. stainless is far less likely to than other uncoated steels, but in a lot of circumstances it will still rust badly. hopefully the "stainless steel" parts you guys are talking about are chromed... there is a reason why cars don't come from the factory with exposed stainless steel, and it's not just cost!</font>
I know this guy with a Thermal R&D and the entire thing is SS so it'll never rust<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by anubyss:
I have the Tanabe DTM and it is ss, the muffler anyway. It is definitely rusting. I went out and bought some sandpaper so that I can get the rust off. To their credit though, the rusting is minor and I've had it for over 2 years.</font>
Where did Paramus Honda send you for the alignment? Next time I get tires I'll need to do that and wouldn't mind going someplace that knows what to do for a lowered car.<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by anubyss:
