Theyre opinion doesnt count cause their stupid. What part of this arent you getting? :rofl:

As far as skinnies and slicks on the street you guys are full of **** that noone does that. The immediate company involved in this conversation might not do it but there are LOADS of guys that as soon as its not sub freezing throw on the skinnies and slicks.

I guess everyone on this board is stupid. And I won't take your comment as an insult since I didn't do it to my own car. I just like the look of it and have driven in a car like it and know what its like

additional stress on a tires sidewall at anything over 10-15mph is very unsafe. thats why off roaders and drag racers air down at the trails/track and air up before they go. i understand your point to looking good but driving at any speed with half the tire off of the ground and all of the cars weight on the inner sidewall is asking for trouble.

Clearly, they are the stupid ones.

And as far as people with slicks and skinnies go, I've seen plenty, especially in Florida. I used to always read posts how the rain came out of nowhere and someone was stuck, or had a couple of holy **** batman moments while driving home. Totally safe considering a lot of those people drove between Orlando and Daytona, and on I-95.

Yup. Just because we "like" a mod or can justify it in some way doesn't make it safe. Pot, black, and so on.
