My problem, from the beginning, is thus:

Say someone that doesn't know much comes on asking for wheel size recommendations. People throw out stuff that's optimal for their setup. That's fine. That's to be expected. But when anyone like me dares to point out that there's lots of additional stuff required/recommended to run even a mildly aggressive wheel setup, and that it might not be optimal for everyone, the insults come out and people start calling wheels that fit just fine with no hassles "WRONG."

I just can't stand blanket statements like that... Someone in another thread called an 8" wide, +26 a Honda wheel size... some people have totally lost perspective.

I have nothing better to argue about because I haven't been able to work on my car the past couple weeks. haha. My friend's garage door broke, so no place to go. Weaksauce... My S13 needs new rad hoses and trans oil... my daily needs new rear brake pads... bah. That and I'm pissed that the M2 wheel groupbuys seem to have all simultaneously died, because I wanted some of those 16x8 +27s... close to R32 GT-R stock size which I always thought was a good subtle look on the S13, good match to 225/50s...

Now I'm rambling but at least I'm chilled out.
