99 percent of the cars on here have wheel bearing problems are the tires are about to blow off the wheels. I think that stretching tires is gay as fuck and i would rather have a nice fitting tire that wont blow off the bead while doing 100+

considering 99 percent of the cars on here are street or show cars they shouldn't be doing 100+ anyway...

You don't get to have the whole package.
I don't think he runs camber so his alignment is as within factory as yours??? the contact patch is about the same the only difference is that his wheels are now wider and the sidewall go in instead of out or straight up.....

Yes, because camber is all that matters. Do the words "suspension bind" mean anything to you?

He has a solid rear axle and mcphereson strut front. There isnt much to bind. At worst he would have to deal with bumpsteer, but seeing as how its not a track car I dont think its much of a problem.

I've watched him take corners. Its a stiff chassis. Its no race car, buts its no slouch either. It was pretty composed from what I saw.

Well its good to hear you got SOMETHING back. I was pretty pissed when I read that your car got stolen back when it did. Also reminds me of another car that looked like that from Driven Concepts, except it was an inside job..
