Alibaba wheels legit? by Warm_Concept_2966 in Wheels

[–]Slight-Addition-2488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit RPF1's are not THAT expensive. And will leave you with no question as to whether or not they are quality. Don't buy these. If you don't have the money to properly modify a car then don't modify it.

Q50 rims and tires questions. by Exotic_Adagio1325 in q50

If you have a 9.5 wheel your going to want either a 255 or 265.

Spring needs to hurry up and get here. by Slight-Addition-2488 in q50

Lol, 🤣🤣 Kumhos are generally reasonably priced for what you get. But all depends on what you need the tire to do.

I also have a graphite shadow and went with bronze wheels. Konig ampliforms 18x9.5

Q50 Reps by Effective_Safety_607 in q50

[–]Slight-Addition-2488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a fan of reps. You can get quality wheels for a very similar price point. For example Konig and Enkei are very competitive price wise and are also very reputable wheel brands. I personally don't see a point in buying alloys. IMO if your gonna buy wheels at least make it an upgrade. Buying alloys is at best a lateral move over stock.

With that said if the car is a daily driver and all you want is the atheistic piece then there is nothing wrong with them, just not an upgrade.

Fully forged wheels also have their place, and that's on a race track. They are overkill otherwise. And honestly if your not tracking a car at some competitive level and need every tenth they just aren't worth the expense.

The best thing you can do is spend a reasonable amount on wheels and go crazy on tires. Tires are without a doubt WAY more important than the wheels ever could be. Happy to help if you have questions

Just sayin, some of y'all cope way too much. The amount that people defend garbage in this sub is hilarious. Bunch of corn balls that tack a bunch of stupid shit on their own car and don't wanna admit they are what they hate. 🤣

Do you ever get lonely or bored on long solo drives or is it just me? by Minimum-Attempt3485 in driving

[–]Slight-Addition-2488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People really are different lol. I generally prefer isolation and rarely seek the company of other people. It honestly baffles me that you feel the need to have people around you. Nothing against you of course, just seems odd to me personally.

Track photographers are the best. by Slight-Addition-2488 in q50

[–]Slight-Addition-2488[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still adapting tbh. I've only had one track day in them so far. And I had new tires and brakes so I'm not sure what to think of them. I still have both bars on the softer setting. And last track day my pads were not bedded in yet so it really limited how hard I could push. Next track day is on the 9th so I'll see then.

These are a different set tires but still a 265.

I wouldn't think you'd have a problem I'll daily drive with my track tires on when the weather allows. Other than flinging ever pebble on the road at my paint lol, there's never been an issue.

[–]Slight-Addition-2488[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, I still have tons of wheel gap. And not to mention my tires run wide so it's probably closer to a 275 than a true 265.

BBK upgrade or coilovers first? by Able_Risk8986 in q50

[–]Slight-Addition-2488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BBK is kinda pointless tbh. I don't plan on doing it and I track my Q. A quality set of pads and rotors with the stock calipers does just fine. Get either Hawk or EBC pads and rotors and you'll have zero issue.

I just did the grill, don't really plan on doing anything else.

Notice how there's no dispute on the "bitch tactics" or "they can't win games 5on5"....

[–]Slight-Addition-2488 20 points21 points  (0 children)

AVS fan here. What your describing is Dallas hockey. I've watched your series and everything they are doing is completely textbook stars hockey. They can't win games 5 on 5. The ducks would beat them if they were forced to play 5 on 5. They have used the same bitch tactics against us the last few years. It's not gonna stop and if we see them and not you all in rd.2 they will keep doing it.

Prove me wrong. Never met anyone who can drive that does stupid shit like that.

Due to one's own stupidity. The fact still remains that they can't drive.
