1. you dont have the privilege to call me pete like other ppl on here... u can call me tcpete, god, oh high and mighty, that nikkuh stuntin on weds and recaros, mr all motor, and vanilla gorilla... so pls relax on that negrodumbass.

2. that statement proves your definitely not the brightest light bulb in bunch.. i dont think you've EVER had much experience on cars and knowing whats called rotating mass... but im going to school u up real quick so u can get a clue home slice...

large rims are usually heavier, have a larger diameter (given) and take more time to rotate in a full circle then smaller rims.... so getting up and moving my car is alot easier the smaller the rims because 1. it takes less effort and less time to rotate the rim and go through gears, 2. less effort on the car and tranny to get going. 3. will save me some weight on the car helping out in a variety of ways....

granted width helps with traction but seriously.. 9.5 wide rims on FWD cars LMAOOOO... non boosted, only with litmited power under 175 hp... u car must move slower then paint drying on a wall... by the time it take u to make 1 full rotation im already probably on my 1.25 to 1.5 rotation on my rim... the only thing can save ur life would be nos or turbo and even then your still going to trail on anyone with equal or possibly even less power....

HAVE A NICE DAY and go east a scooby snack...

rotating mass is such a small facotr. ill throw some 14 honda wheels on my car and fly by everyone!!! no its stupid. yes i know i dont havce the hp numbers to match the tires yet. if i had a turbo and stock tires i wouldnt get any traction either so either way i'd suck. waiting on that 600 return from uncle sam to go to a turbotoyota's kit. but untill then im slow shouldnt race on the street anyway!

right but you don't have a turbo and yes rotating mass makes a huge difference, ever heard of inertia? probably not because you probably dropped out of college or never went

lol, that's not epic.

Epic fail = kid killing himself over losing an iPod, then having newspapers call him 'an hero'. Then having his funeral page and obituaries hacked.

That's an epic fail. Not some noob who spends 3,000 on crap wheels.

The entire story. Btw, site is VERY NSFW lol.

It's the encyclopedia for the real interet, where things like rick roll and caturday start.

$600 on a TT kit???? WOW man, you couldnt even by a turbo from Todd for that much. Maybe you can buy a few pipes but thats about all. no turbo or mani. Good luck with that turbo kit.
Mospeed, I was talking to you down at HIN in VA 2 weeks ago. We were talkin about my blown motor.

He could get the turbo for that much. But that's it. lol. A garrett t3/t4 generally runs right around $600.
