Ok, I was going to ignore your comments but now you're just getting annoying with your uneducated opinions about something that you clearly don't like.

Cops don't give a ****, legal law says nothing about specified tire size to corresponding wheel width. You get a citation, you fight it, you win.

Blowouts and separations are what happens when you use cheap tires, old tire (willing to bet a long of people on here buy tires from wal mart) or user error, just as Levon said. You have never stretched tires, you have never driven a stanced car and I am willing to bet you've never mounted tires. So before you run around saying something is unsafe, go and research how much force it takes to unseat a beaded tire while there is optimal PSI in it (32)

Also, that photo you posted of the Z with flat tire. Have you considered why he is running two sets of wheels? He clearly wasn't drifting....

There was one at the shop Dan brought his car to.. blew the bottom end on a completely stock motor with 75k on it.. it was just out of warranty.. he said he didn't really beat on it and kept up on the maintenance..

I'm really digging the fitment on this one, Johnny. Looks great. I'm eager to see everything as soon as you get it all buttoned up.



And I'm in love with this car. Executed well, I think.
