you dont put "brakes" on tires. but with a stock car just use oem pads or some nice hawk hps ceramic

oil change is the same but the filter is on top of the back of the motor, hard to get to.

use 5w30 or 10w30 synthetic blend or royal purple synthetic.

It easy to change the oil on the 8. Just need a jack to get under the car to get to the oil drain plug. Remember to always change the oil drain plug seal. Cheap insurance. And go to the auto parts store and get a cup oil filter wrench. I do not rmember the correct name for it. An oil filter wrench will not work not enough room.
