Cars & Transportation - 31 December 2007

Where do you place temp license plates on cars? Do you place them where the hard plates go? Or in the rear window? Because I drove up to Ohio and have tinted windows that I believe are past the legal limit in Ohio and makes it hard to see them in the rear window. I ask this because someone I know told me it was illegal to place temp tags on the rear of the car where to permanent tags go. Also I have a laminator... is it legal to laminate the temp tags so they don't get wet and ruined?

I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant ES. It has 45,000 original miles on it. Everytime I brake at a stop sign or a red light or whatever, I hear a loud "whirrrrrrr" sound coming from my brakes combined with a rough grinding. I'm pretty sure it's coming from the front of the car. I have brand new brake pads and rotors on the car so I'm not sure why this is happening. Anyone know what's going on?

I want a new car with lower payments, but the car I have now is worth nothing, basically. I was advised to just buy a second car and have someone take over my old car payments because the dealers will not accept that car as a trade in. If the old car payments are not made then the car will be repossesed. But, I will have my new car so it wouldn't make a difference.

What are the effects of offsets on cars? The differences between positive, zero, and negative offsets (I can't understand what wikipedia is saying)? And the good and bad sides?

I have a car and I wanted to modify it, little by little. I wished not to change my tires and mags but they seems to look my car with narrow wheels, the length/gap of a wheel to the other wheel at the other side (because they are "inserted" against the body/wheel well of my car). What I want is to look it wider (what do you call it, negative or positive offset?). Now I wished to adjust my offsets but how will the adjustments affect my car's handling, acceleration, fuel consumption, etc.?

Thank you for answering my questions and happy new year to all of you. =)
