I can name practical reasons for keeping things stock, can you name a practical reason for going with larger wheels than you currently have? ;)

i would love to see that badass lincoln on some 24s!!! Kudos on the Chrome Woman (IT'S A TEXAS THING)

You're older than I am.

Who said either of my cars were stock?

You never gave a practical reason for going with larger wheels.

Just because you like them does not make them practical. I may like masturbating 10 times a day, but practical it is not.

(IT'S A TEXAS THING)

Having an ego so large it requires larger wheels to carry it?

Lol, I bet I am older than all of you and I don't care what you do with your car. I'm partial to stealth, when I got a 5.0 mustang years back I got an LX didn't want a GT. I took the 5.0 emblems off it, but left the twin pipes on the back. I was much more interested in driving the car and not having the law notice what I was doing with it....but having done plenty of hands on stuff I can certainly appreciate custom work even if it is not in my style, so good job on the car.

If I were going to give anyone $.01 of advice, I'd tell you to have your fun but avoid hassles. Avoid the law, people that suck, jobs that suck, towns that suck, etc. Just keep working your way into something better, try to help people out but keep your eye on #1 and always expect to find a bad apple to avoid where ever you go. If you don't like helping people, just remember they will get you further ahead than anything else most of the time far as opportunities....just try to pick them right so they don't lead you to a pile of ****. If you can do some of those things your life will be much easier. Don't let something unimportant PO you so you do something stupid, it will only be your setback if you see what I mean...think #1 for you and yours. Hate is always around but what good does it do you, if it does not advantage #1 then move on. It is very rarely an advantage more like a waste of what could be good times.

I've worked with/for people from all kinds of races and other countries. Just like the people here in my town some suck but most were good and some were great people to know.

Can we all relax. If he wants to lift up his car, so be it. It is his money. :)

Indeed, but that amount of egoism is astounding, wheels or not :)

No wonder the cops gave him a hard time...

Saying "everyone in my town wants to rob me or be me" is a pretty interesting statement regardless of your age.

let me also say.. that years and years ago... people allways said that loud music in cars is stupid....... having amps and subs is stupid... and now here we are.

In a lot of cases it still is...

I had subs in a car in the late 80s, it certainly was a new thing back then. But around here it was way cool and people were trying to steal anything they could. Luckily I didn't live or go into town that much where most of that went on. The funnest thing was when I had a omni with a sweet ported box that filled the whole rear end up. It hammered, just shook the whole car. I was working in town then for a subcontractor and would drive all over, people would freak out over subs. My nice car was broken or something so I drove that for a summer. I'd drive along in that little mundane tin can and nobody could figure out which car had the subs! Heads were spinning all over and I was ROTFLMFAO every day. Today I turn it down around other people, actually I only crank on it when I feel the need and I'm on an open road.

wow, this took a turn.

jon, while i hate da donks, it's just my opinion, please tell me when you go bigger wheels you will be doing it right? you know, bigger brakes? it's a real lift and not just some bullshit air shocks? and steering geometry is still correct? all that lift and added weight will surely tear shit up and cause potential driveability issues. and i ask as much for your sake as fellow drivers. i've seen people really ghetto up a ride for the sake of 24" wheels and didn't care if it was safe or not. i've even posted a pic or two of what happens when it's not done right.

in the end, if donks are you, then they are you. go with what ya know.

one helluva topic you started here bro, lol

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

  • Author

your right ray i see to have ruffeled the feathers of many SSAERS lol

i have already done the lift,,, i used larger springs, and somthing simaler to lift cups, on 2 inch cups, before i ever lifted it i got LARGER PORTED AND SLOTTED rotors ALL THE WAY AROUND....

so yeah i hear what your saying... am i doing it right.. or an i doing some ghetto chit...

i try to do everything i do the right way...

and acctualy this topic has had me thinking alot the past few days...... i read alot of on the other donk fourm and thay are all clowns.... no one has taken the steps i have... and i dont even have huge rims yet... either way.. i have been thinking to do 22 inch spokes.... not 24... and make up for the size with jazz!!!... im thinking 22 inch spoked.. with a white wall tire........ what does ssa think?

:edit: i also put in a new rearend, had a complete run over of the motor, new catalic converters.. all new O2 sensors. platnum plugs. 8 new coils, a few new stearing parts, all new wheel bearings and seals, yeah i have done alot of work over the time.. because i know that with the weight of the subs amps cells, wheels, and what ever else there will be a stress,....

but this is also not my daily driver... i have has this car 10 months i have yet to put 3000 miles on it yet... ahhh the perks of having a company truck 24/7

Thin whitewalls look silly, IMO, full whitewalls are great but on anything made after the 1950's they look stupid...

  • Author

i hear ya sean,..... and if i put 24's i will have to cut some bumper... and some body away.. not on the top... only... in front and behind the front tires..... i think im gonna go with 22's and im gonna go with a little thicker tire then a 35 series.... and i may just look stupid and put white walls on my 2001...... put it wont be a fat boy white wall.
