- Decreased overall tire diameter will decrease the top speed in each gear, forcing driver to shift more often. Overall fuel economy might decrease.
- Mismatched rims are ugly. No girlies for you.

that's whats up.. :-)

what happened to the front 2 wheels? or was it a 50% off offer but they shipped 50% of the parts?

i think the rear wheels don't look good sticking out of the car, maybe a wide body is needed

Geeze it's not like being Latino is a bad thing or something. If you want to strike back at him then point out something equally stupid like his inability to spell "Original".

1. I have no problem with understeer
2.true about wheel bearing, but getting new ones soon along with everything else
3. I have been faster then i have then with stock tires
4.gas is true but just a lil bit
5. mismatched rims dont look ugly i like the way it looks on some i dont really like how i have stock fronts trying to get matching pair for the front
5. better handling, worse for drifting
