Waiting on a new master cylinder before bleeding. I used air out of pure laziness and was able to get 3 of the 4 pistons out in each caliper. Used a handy-dandy low profile caliper piston tool to remove the 4th.

Yeah - worked reasonably well. Not great for pulling out the piston on its own, but gives you something to lever against to pop the piston out. The aluminum is pretty soft, so it's probably only good for a couple of uses, but caliper rebuilding isn't something frequently done so

Still having tire wear issues, however, these were the best they’ve looked yet. I was pretty consistent on tire pressures all day. Doing a little research suggests that the suspension is overloading the tire - likely due to to much pre-load. Unfortunately, track days are done for the year, so I can’t verify until next year

Get the cheap electric Oral-B toothbrushes for like $6. And when you get tired of them or replace the heads on em a few times and just want a new one, retire it and let your cats play with it. They love that shit when you're at your vanity watching them judge you as you get ready in the morning.
