Subject: Re: 9000t tire and wheel size advice needed


Well, then all you need is a good looking car - thatīs very important when you donīt know how to drive it! Itīs not worth the risk flying off the track cause tires scrub the fenders or have no grip cause they donīt reach their working range! By the way your top speed is quite too low, the tires wear uneven and the handling of the 9000 "SUPERSPORTSCAR" is much too tricky for you - Mr. Riff Hakkinen!!! But no problem when you havenīt heard that thereīre rims with different offsets and all what decides if a rim fits a car or not is the rim offset. - Thatīs all I said! And about http://www.nospam.com/turbo.Nice site but read about the 900 Carlsson! Scrubbing problems on the rear until they fitted 195-50-16! A great deal on a 6.5x16" rim! The car looks very nice puffy! - But you canīt concern hard!
