i might as well put a rainbow sticker on my car since “its gay to have stretch tires” and i guess your calling ziptied a gay forum also.
i guess all the “straight” drifters out there use 275 wide or more tires to drift. mybe its cheaper/easier to drift w/ not so wide tires on a near stock power car. (and yes i buy new tires for drifting)
oohhh im going to put neon lights on my car also so i can be the ultimate ricer. neon lights + stretched tires ftw.
btw that vid was boring and i dont get how it proves stretching is gay. but cool thread tho.
if you don’t like stretch, then don’t do it. simple as that.
if other ppl want to do it for whatever reasons, let them be. ppl need to mind their own friggin business.
has stretching tires ever put YOU in any danger or at an loss of any sort?
if it has, then i’m sorry. if not, stfu.
hahaha stretch tires for the win. if u cant do it then pls post here and cry about it. is it unsafe? maybe for the lip of ur rims lol who told u to park so close to curbs?
whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…
they cant handle what real 240’s are all that real car stuff would kill em.
strechn tires isnt gay… big buldgie tires are gay. like everyone else says, if you dont like it, dont do it. and if you like your tires to feel like 70 year pee flaps then thats cool too.
wow trust son to turn a thread that someone might learn from. in to a complete failure now all the kids are going to go stretch tires because Bing did it i hope he jumps off a bridge and they follow. sorry rough day
i didnt do this for any other reason other than that 275’s wont fit under a stock fender with these wheels and the required spacing… not without modding anyways.
these wheels are off the car and will be remounted with the 275’s for my other car.
who cars about function. Why does everything have to MEAN something.
the comments made in this thread are a perfect example as to why son has become a joke of a website amognst the drift/race/enthusiast/whatever community. so many fukn kids with no clue. lookin good bing.
(if you really think i would run that then your an idiot)
you think ppl that stretch in general are unsafe cheapass that are trying to look like the most expensive fast and furious cars and suck at drifting cuz we can’t kick it out other wise. im fine with that, its your opinion whatever i dont really care
SON has more track days than any other forum in the country… more than the fukking porsche clubs.
we have 3-4 members who cooridnate dozens of track days a year, most of which are predominantly or at least well represented by SON240sx members.
There are dozens of members on the site who do not post every day that are among the most progressive tuners in the country. guys that are basically famous in Ontario…
no other regional, chassis-specific forum comes close. Don’t kid yourself.
some like to walk around with pants to their waist or higher, some like it lower.
some like to slam their car, some like 4x4 height
some like to wear tighty whities, some like to wear boxers.
it’s all style and hardly function. Drifting is a style which is why most drifter’s run stretch.
HOWEVER, there are good reasons to why ppl stretch tires.
1) stiffens the sidewalls of a tire that normally wouldn’t be stiff, which helps provide better steering response, and better prediction when the rear steps out
2) fitment issues
3) looks
4) budget
shit mang, tire blowouts happen REGARDLESS if you stretch or not.
brand new tires blow out, what are you going to do? ride on flinestones?
so ur sayn pretty much all d1 drivers,nopi drivers, formula d drivers are shit cuz they strech tires?
get ur story straight before you open ur mouth. its pretty easy if you dont understand keep your mouth shut
And this is why the majority of posting I do as of late is on my350z. There’s so much anger here. Why? You like stretching, I don’t. It’s two posts. Not two pages of “ZOMG UR GAY!!” “WELL IF I’M GAY SO IS DK!!”
And Donkey Kong is gay, why do you think he chills with Diddy so much? They’re both dudes.
