whats wrong with 15" rims....Originally posted by "BioHazard"
lol well i may of forgot a comma or so but i meant a vortech or hks supercharger....both were about super charges...and also this is for Team4r. Both are forms of intake, lol they both take air and put in in the INTAKE manifold...so in my view they are the same, the way they do it is different yes. And this is for 99excoupe...just wondering why you would spend money on 15" rims???
good for you... you like them.. i'd imagine, right????Originally posted by "BioHazard"
well i have a set a 17x7.0 REV model IV rims, gunmetal.

umm you didnt pass physics or math there tiger. the whole point of the plus sizing of tires and wheels is to keep the set THE SAME DIAMETER so it doesnt throw off the speedo and mess up the handling. the point he made was about weight, not about wheel diameter, which is what your trying to say. yes your right, when you increase wheel diameter, you effectively make the gears taller, giving less torque and more high end speed. the issue is weight. pretty much no matter how you look at it, wheel is heavier than tire. so the bigger the wheel is, the smaller the tire is, and the more they weigh. the more rotating weight you have, the more inertia it has. so the engine has to work harder to accelerate them, and the brakes work harder to slow them down. so you want a smaller wheel with a larger tire to get the least weight. lower unsprung weight means better handling, and lower rotating weight gives better acceleration. simple physics.Originally posted by "BioHazard"
oh yeah one more thing...99excoupe did you pass physics or even math? becuase anyone who knows anything about ratios, will be able to realize that the bigger the tires, the less torque, but in the more speed top end....so as you once very well said "before you start talking s**t, or start acting like you know it all, go read up your s**t, cause you just sound like a dumbass". isnt it nice that your little phrase is so universal
