im not F***ing telling him to get a 7.5 in wheel, i said it would be retarded to get one because in order to make it flush he would need a damn -15mm offset!

only really cheap tires have sidewall flex. most modern tires are designed so they have a good contact patch while still having little sidewall flex.

tires are why drifting costs alot of money but of course if you get sponsored you don't have to worry about it. Or be smart and just don't drift to begin with... find something more worthwhile to do with you car like road racing or atleast auto-x.

I do like to do auto-x, becasue it teaches you how to be a better driver, and how to control your car. But i think drifting is alot funner=)

But it would also be retarded to consider the option of making them flush.

so if he were to get 7.5s you would say your retarded to make them flush you should have left them sunk? thats retarded. there only a half an inch less than sportmax, there is no reason they shouldnt be flush.

i no, i was telling him not to get them, and if he were to get 7.5s he would need to get a -15 to look decent...so implying not to get them.
