y is it every1 thinks the tranny will go out if you have big rims??? its not true sounds good has nuthin to do with it nobody around my city has had problems i lift all the cars ,only problem ive ever have had was b4 with the factorys on it trans was messin up, so i liffted it put 24s took it to the trans shop 4 a new trans, i ASK them if it would tear up the new trans they said no unless im nutruel droppin it or blah blah the trans has a 2yr warranty or 30k wichever comes first:th_winking:
i went through your pictures, kinda looks like daytonish area?
more rotating mass = more wear on parts. its not an opinion or 'we think', its a fact.
cleveland area suburbs tho
ohhh ok. everything looked too nice to be the middle of dayton, i was thinkin like tipp city or something
bio^^ bigger = less rotating mass = less wear =less miles, its your foot that destroys a trans:th_thumbsup-wink:
poil^ u bye the colledge
yeah, i go to BGSU. i'm from like 2 hours south though
how is it out there??
LMFAOQuote:

Also destroys performance and handling.
But who cars about going fast and being able to turn?:th_jester:
In BG? boring haha. we just got like another 2 to 3 inches of snow the last two nights. and it's the weekend so all anybody is doing is getting retard-drunk.
i can go fast turn all the way and handles way better with the modded suspension then stock and rides smoother beleve it or not
do you know what the term 'rotating mass' means? im done here.
poil, we got 12inches friday 6inches lastnite and its been snowing all day nuthin at all to do here otha then watch tv and relax lol
I give up, you don't seem to know what any of these things do or mean.
haha yeah, that's pretty much what i've been doing. two weeks ago we got like a foot and half, it was almost gone too. i've just been trying to catch up on a few things before break next weekQuote:

Even greater gains in acceleration, or wheel horsepower, can be made by eliminating weight from rotating parts of the drivetrain and chassis. To even further complicate matters, there are more gains to be made in reducing certain areas of rotating mass than others.
For example: Reducing 10 lbs of weight from parts that rotate at engine speed (crankshaft, flywheel, etc.) will have more benefits than reducing 10 lbs of weight from parts that rotate at axle speed (hub, rotor, wheel/tire, etc.) This somewhat relates to drivetrain loss, which most people are familiar with.
However, even reducing the weight of parts that rotate at axle speed, still far outweighs the benefits of reducing weight from non-rotating parts.
AND Y IS ONE OFF THE BEST TRANS SHOPS GONA TELL ME DIFFERENT, I KNO THEY DONT MAKE UM OUTA TITANIUM FOR ME AND I DONT THINK THE ARE GONA WANA KEEP REPLACING UM IF THEY DO BREAK I GUESS AROUND HERE PUTS A GOOD NAME ON THERE TRANS QUALLITY
thats kool you ever go to cruisefest in columbus?? that shyt is off the hook man
nah, i've never really been up in this part of the state much. i'm hoping to go to some shows and stuff this summer though. we'll see how it goes. i'm still gonna be working and taking classes closer to home but i'm sure i can find the time to
That was retarded because you just proved yourself wrong... bigger wheels weigh more. End of story.
