Thats the VW Rabbit I posted the article about. The one that got impounded.

 
Bring on the hate...just because you haven't been on top for anything doesn't mean you still don't have the time.
I don't hate you. I don't know you. You don't know me either, which means you have no clue about my life's accomplishments. Not that this thread is touching on anything important anyway. You really are insecure, aren't you? Exactly the type of behavior I expect from people who are part of a "team".

 
...or just because you see the actual lip does not make it unsafe.
Yes, it does. Wheel designers dont have a bead lip on their wheels for aesthetic reasons. Your tires will unseat themselves easier than tires that mate to the lip properly, and you know it. Your defensiveness makes you blind to obvious reasoning.

 
You continually try to get under my skin with these types of insults, but all you do is amuse me with your show of immaturity.

Am I really getting under your skin? That was never my intent. If I am, you must have some thin skin.

I'm going based off the comment you made that's all....and what does being part of a team have to do with anything?

Since the first post.

 
Looks like he didn't have the money to buy the right size wheels/ tires.

Or ... he had way too much money, was dead set on that size, & when the dealer told him they wouldn't fit right, he said, "Meh, I want 'em anyway, jam 'em in there."

 
This is the funniest thing I've read so far. Unsafe, lol. Some of the cars on the Hella Flush forum are perfectly safe to drive. Just because you can't drive without curbing your wheels doesn't mean it's not safe, or just because you see the actual lip does not make it unsafe. Just an FYI, I don't think drifteres would risk their lives if it was unsafe.
LMAO, proof that you are truly clueless about stretched wheels. You dont have to curb them for them to be deadly. You have greatly reduced the contact patch of your tires, your wheels/tires are not installed correctly on the car to maximize their use and abilities, and that EXTREME stretch you have is just begging for you to blow your sidewalls and lose control. That is what makes them unsafe, not your driving abilities. You are proving yourself clueless as to the extent of what you have done to your car, and FJF hit the nail on the head: You dont know as much as you think you know, yet you want to prove the more educated people wrong.

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif - Drifters dont stretch their tires or have those rediculous camber angles. No legit race car is going to run a stretched tire for safety reasons, and because they are willing to spend the money to get proper tires (noticing a theme here? Spending money to do things right...)

Your lack of education coupled with the fact that you think you know it all is getting amusing. The best part was when you compared your car to a drifter. People who set up drift cars know better than to do something stupid like stretching a tire. That would just be asking for a sidewall failure, and camber like that on a drifter would be retarded, you would have such a little contact patch of rubber that you would hardly be able to steer it with the rear wheels.

Well I've driven on them for about 2,500 miles, no issues....so when's this supposed to happen?
