Re: heheheee yeeaaahh r32

I'm trying hard these days to offer more information or constructive advice rather than just arguing opinions, seems to be working well so far

I support this.

i feel like it started with a general concern, suggesting 8s may not be wide enough to handle it. Dom instantly said he hasnt had an issue then anything after that was just poopy.

Lets assume positive intent on the original "are you sure 8s are wide enough?" post, maybe they thought he wasnt used to a car this powerful and genuinely wanted to throw some experience and concern at him. Boom, his car, his choices, everyone KNOWS its a beauty so lets all just party forever.

I like to party

After having been in the car and having driven the car, I personally would have put something wider on it.

That was where my concern came from. Looks great, but personally, I would have done 9's, just sayin.

EDIT: I haven't used/experienced those tires so I was just going off previous.

That was also brand new winter rubber you were driving on, not a sticky summer tire that will put down some power.

what i'm not understanding is, why is there so much concern over rim width when it is tire width that should be discussed. having an 8 inch versus a 9 inch wide rim makes no difference when you're running, for example, a 215 cross section tire on either...

This. When I had the 215's it would spin but not a lot. The car is AWD, lets not forget that...

Oooook, so this is getting a little bit out of hand, don't you guys think? No where has Dom said that he doesn't drive it like its been built to be driven... It begs to be driven hard, but, if you don't respect the power it has and how much **** it can get you in then you ARE NOT the person to have a car like this. As for the rest of what Dom has done, he's changed the car and made it his. 8" wheels with the proper tires will be fine; Cam runs 8" CH's as his summers, I ran 8.5's with 215's on them and neither of us had issues with traction.

You all might not be the biggest fans but at the end of the day the car is still gorgeous and it is HIS. So unless there is something constructive to come from what you have to say then maybe everyone should just lay off. Christ, even Sean was more constructive than 90% of you, thats saying something.

and a valid concern it was! I 100% agree, i would have done at LEAST a 9 all around. if the driver is comfortable and confident, then its allllllllll good

I really like them, was actually looking at some similar ones. Not to sure how something similar would look on black, but I like them with the blue, how big is the chrome lip?

the lip is an inch and a half. im sure they'll look great on black as well !

Re: heheheee yeeaaahh r32

it was the fact of saying "constantly" drive it hard, and break it. Just the wrong mentality to have IMO - after all, just an opinion.
You're very correct, it is HIS car, there for he can do what he wants with it. I personally enjoy my car, I'd rather not "constantly drive it hard and break it". But I mean hey, if you have the paper to waste, may as well break & fix all day, every day. Just not my cup of tea, that's all! This isn't VWvortex, no need for arguments lol.

Re: heheheee yeeaaahh r32

I totally built my car so I can baby it and not break anything

sadly for every s4 owner this is the truth. only because they break themselves
