can you really tell a differece in terms of weight when you're driving? I'm about 280lbs... so... my car knows how to handle heavy weights.. haha I don't think an extra 2 lbs per wheel would be that much of a difference would it? What if I lost 20 lbs? maybe I can compensate for the wheel weight? haha

Why do you have 12 gauges in your car and why did you take them off?
I never said anything about getting 18's for you to be a man.... hmmmm
One day... when you get 17's my friend, go ahead and take the poll because you can, and you will!
And you should be honored that i can communicate with you in this manner after meeting me once in your whole life. A lot of people can't act a certain way in fear that they might weird someone out or get them bent out of shape. But see.. I know you're a cool guy and things like this shouldn't really affect you because you're a smart guy with a college education and you know people are just playin on here. You'd have to be a RE-RE to take people on here seriously if they're speakin jive about you and get all upset. KNow what I'm sayin? No offense to people I've offended. (suckas haha kiss my big brownish yellowish azz ya biches! hehehe)

That's just the type of person I am. I'm very serious in life and just in general. My past record shows many former friends who just all of a sudden went over the line even with a clear warning that I am serious, and now they're not my friends anymore. I tend to drop friendships like a drop of a dime.
I'm not saying this like a proud thing, it's just my characteristics of being me. I know many i-clubbers here just clown and joke around and don't mean anything by it and many times I've let it go, but not always. All depends if it's over the fine line or not after being warned. I'm not like the jokester cause like I said, I'm a very serious person and real true friends would tell you the same.
Also, people I barely know or never even met in my life start saying shiet at me. My natural instincts would be like WTF!? I don't even know you!! I think it's natural to be like that and I tend to just leave the scene. Only on certain cases, I find out that they were just kidding around such as someone else telling me. Then perhaps I let things go.. just depends how deep of a nerve was touched.
Sure, we can have a few laughs but just don't push it! You joke at me, I joke at me... no harm done. Just when it does get serious and out of control, it's no more fun and games.
This is way off topic of wheels LOL

HOLY CRAP! That just reminded me of the counseling scene where Dr. Evil was Talking about his life....
"The details of my life are quite inconsequential.... very well, where do i begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my *********. There really is nothing like a shorn *******... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it."
