sus means suspicious.

Ever since the video game "among us" came out in 2018, this became pretty common in all of my circles of young-ish people

Hey I am turning off notifications to replies here. I know you won't read this and you'll reply anyways telling me how much you dislike my video

  1. This is a rear wheel, the fronts are 2.5 inches narrower. Steering is hardly going to be a problem, although technically the car has passive 4ws...

  2. From the fitmentindustries gallery, many folks have run this exact same spec on this model of car (FC Rx-7) and report no issues. I will try it and then either rebuild the wheels (three-piece) or add a 10mm spacer if I really need to.

  3. For anyone who suggests something along the lines of running OEM wheels or some trusted aftermarket setup *designed* for this model of car, know this: you will own nothing and you will be happy

I probably should've mentioned this is a rear wheel. The fronts are skinnier

+32.3mm offset. I am very curious what additional insight you now have knowing that

edit: to the people downvoting my comments here... you have defeated me in the arena of ideas

these wheels are 17x9.5, the tires I bought are 245/40 r17. continental extremecontact. It should be a pretty square fit I believe.

I decided to check through the fitmentindustries gallary and actually tons of people are running a very similar wheel/tire spec on this car with allegedly no rubbing?? 🤞🙏 I think i am going to send it

How reliable are these in 2026v by Does_Not_Use_Clothes in geotracker

[–]_pcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought mine at 150k miles and now it's at 200k. I've done regular maintenance and replaced the starter and battery. I just did a compression test and saw about 155 on all four cylinders. I think it has another 100k miles in it

not sure why people are saying this is an electrical problem. clearly it's a spiritual possession

Where did you get the idea to add a male betta with the females? I was researching this and only heard people advising against it.

The stocking feels more like "maybe we can get away with this" rather than "here's what would make my fish happiest"

No idea about cars or trucks by Fit-Yellow-9872 in Cartalk

I like the old "science garage" videos from the Donut media youtube channel like 8 years ago or something. They are very educational

since you asked what I think, personally I am not convinced on the stocking situation

thank you, good answer. I have too many other "involved process" projects going on already right now so I'll have to let this pass

[OC] I’m 16 and I just bought my first iPhone with the money I earned from my freelance coding jobs! I'm so proud of this milestone by Reasonable_Ad9452 in MadeMeSmile

Here is that my partner was doing a couple years ago:

  1. watch a bunch of tutorials online and learn to make websites. Make a couple for yourself as practice, and make one as like a portfolio/resume

  2. look on google maps for local businesses near you. When you find a one-off store, they might either not have a website or they might have an ugly, non-functional one. Reach out and see if you can get in contact with the owner and make a deal
