you guys can say all you want...but when a noob comes onto a board asking about "will my ****ty ass drifting skills get skrewed up by 17"front and 18" rear tires" then nothing is being taught.
drifting is all skill |
I wasnt asking in reference to my skills but asking if it would make it harder to learn etc. cause everyone has to learn and as of now i may not have any skills you got to develop skill from practice and I was not aware if this would make a difference with the cars behavior not all of us are d1 drivers when we start out.

Originally posted by barrigaS14 i'm a noob too but asking about different wheels and not saying just go and do it is a waste of time. Originally posted by barrigaS14 before even thinking of adding coils, different rims, more power or anything say "go get sticker tires and just drift. all that other stuff doesn't even matter until you are D1 material" He didn't post a grocery list with the question "This will make me drift spec right" at the end of it. Originally posted by barrigaS14 and to note there is basically a few people in America that can even compete with D1 drivers. I know you and the AZ boys hit up DD events. |
There are quite a few "american" drifters that can totally hang with D1 material drifters. Maybe even do better.

Ive been to a few events over here, sometimes even the judges are suprised.

hey, for drift days, i use 16s for the front and 15s on the rear. It works pretty well, i don't like wasting money, so i used cheap steelies, and they helped get the back loose.
it's not bad.. sorry for repeating what someone else said, hehe just supporting the idea :D |
id say just go pick up some cheap used tires for you stockers and slap em out back until you learn how to drift. thats what im going to do when i get to that point. and also find a big open parking lot at night to go slide around in, stay away from ones with bunches of poles. home depots around here make good ones for us to play in.
|
yea ive been bein smart about it looking out for poles and such I been likein the neighborhoods they just started building lately though just a paved road no light poles no street signs no mail boxes and no houses so its pretty safe there but I've still been havein some understeer every now and then but im slowly gettin the hang of it

Skills turning? Skills braking? Skills in setting your tire pressure? and to note there is basically a few people in America that can even compete with D1 drivers. and to note you're talking to NcTwOfOuRtY like you're one of them :naughty: LOL j/p Hey NcTwOfOuRtY, just keep in mind that you will go through A LOT of tires just learning the drift. That's where used tires and maybe even a set of used wheels come in handy :thumb: |
yes and i am slowly learning that :D but I'm lovin it regardless of going through a few sets of tires already but im starting to calm down a little cause of $$ and chances of getting tickets maybe my new nangkangs will last through the month now
