    Sometimes I think that the only thing worse than a stock Civic with a fartcannon thinking he is faster than anyone is a guy with a 240 who thinks just because he has a 240 he can race/drift with the best of them.

    Now, I know my car is quick and can take curvy roads with the best of em but I know damn well it's not nearly at the top, esp. only being FWD. (don't want to discredit myself that much, my car does have a nice suspension set up)

    Alright, so it's not the fact that they are different wheels. It's that the back one is larger than the front. I guess I still don't follow. On a RWD car, it is not uncommon to have a larger wheel in the back than in the front.

    Haha, I'm really not trying to be an ass, I just really don't understand what is so bad about that car that it deserves to be in this section. I'm not even really a 240 fan, but there are plenty of IA member's cars that are worse than that.

    I guess it's a drifter thing...?

    Enlighten me.

    What's funny about this, I don't drift my MSP because, let's face it, it's FWD. I had an 03 Tacoma though (5 spd. too) and I bet it saw more drifting (which I did) than that 240.

    Also, thanks guys for clerifying what "stagger" meant. I wasn't sure. I just thought it was an ugly ass 240.

    lolol correct me, but does he have a 5lug swap only on the rear? I'm guessing he couldn't afford the other set of Teins? Another halfass 240... What a shame.

    The incident when you fucking sold me those cheap ass ebay arms for $140.
    I DIDNT TALK SHIT! I DIDNT SAY ANYTHING!
    I just sold them and forgot about and tell everyone on ur post good seller cause i thought we where friends.

    FUCK and just because ur car is nice and has a ton of money in it doesnt mean u should dis my car.

    The coilovers where $300 and yes they are used and yes they are different but the ride is good. Its like yours. so shut the fuck up or say it to my face.

    True, but within reason. Like having 17's up front and 18's out back. Yes you can tell a difference but it isn't that big of a deal (Lambo's anyone?). Now having 15's in front and 17's in the rear? There is no reason for that, because even adjusting the sidewall it will still look ridiculous. I think he got a deal and only ran that set up for a little bit.

    You act like you could drift it if you wanted to. Sorry I had to quote you twice, I just couldn't let it go.

    Thank you! Finally a decent explanation. I must say that the OP is pretty fucked up regardless. Especially considering he knows the guy. And I still don't think it is anywhere near worthy of this forum.

    Yeah, it doesn't make sense. Examples that do make sense: my roommate has wider wheels in the rear, but they are still 18's like the front. I personally have 215's on the steering wheels and 225's on the drive wheels.

    I had 225's on all four corners but I got a pair of G-Force Sports in 215's so I threw them on. I love them but I shouldn't buy any more until I have wheels haha.

    I look at the 265's on the 14.5 and feel bad about my life.

    You are right my friend~
    I have 235/40/18s up front and 265/35/18s rear... They are the same size (18s) but the sidewall up front is taller because of the width difference* Thats the only time I think tires should be taller~

    BUT, look at his car now... It looks pretty damn decent

    I can drift. It's not THAT hard. I mean, I'm no Tanner Foust. Anyhow, like I said, I gots me a FWD and personally, drifting was a fad for me. It's one of those "sports" that got too popular over here too fast and it's hard to keep up with it. I still enjoy going to Drift Atlanta but the whole 2 months I was trying to become a famous drifter, came and went.

    I can drift my FWD, if that's what you can fucking call it. It's called getting two trays from McDonalds with a touch of e-brake.

    No it's cool if you don't like my car. Doesn't bother me one bit. I love my car and if I had money, it'd be boosted more than what it is now. I'm just waiting until the mountains get a little cleared up so I can go and have myself some fun.

    I know that. I did it once to one of my old beater cars. It was fun but still not as fun as the actual drifting.
