Andy P Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Wheel offset isn't majorly importantLies, we all know that big negative offset, stretched tyres and flared arches are some of the most important things in life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 bit harsh. ive only used my manual once. haynes manual on the otherhand... different storyI honestly don't think anyone, who cant check a manual, or use google to search for a simple problem should ever be let behind the wheel of a car.

Could also try putting the money you save from not buying wheels towards actually learning how to drive properly.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pashley26 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Thats a really gay car, I was expecting it to be some sort of amazing 4x4 or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Or a gay Saab jardo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Griffiths Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 yep but with only 10000 miles and 1 year old for 4000 pound when list is 9000 it was no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Or a gay Saab jardo?Haha, no such thing as a gay Saab. There old mans cars anyway so they could be gay and we'd never know...yep but with only 10000 miles and 1 year old for 4000 pound when list is 9000 it was no brainer.It's still a gay car, sell it and buy something cool is my advice. It'll only over depreciate, where as if you sell that and make a profit you can buy something cheap that you won't loose much money on when you sell it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Is the manual really going to go into detail about wheel offsets, etc? Why would the average Colt owner care about all that?Have a look for some Mitsubishi forums and ask on there. Main focus should be the size, offset, bolt pattern (Can't remember the name for it!) and also it's best to look at tyre prices for that particular size!

Orgun_Donor Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Anyone whos trying to talk him otu of this or has any suggestions as to whats better to do with his own money and property..Well, take this as a polite warning about where to go. If you don't like the fact that he's trying to make his own little piece of thr world or his first car better (in anyway) you don't really deserve to be breathing.But in all fairness being young and not actually driving yet, he isnt gonig to be that experienced. He is better of saving his money for the moment, if he still believes he wants/needs alloys 6ish months later then i wouldnt have batted an eye lid, but he is trying to bling a car which he cant drive, and when he is driving he is going to curb his alloys and then have shite looking alloys cause they are damaged. just my opinion, doesnt have to take that bit of advice, but a few weeks after he is driving and he damages his alloys after splashing out on them then ill happily turn around and say i told you so. But to say i dont deserve to be breathing cause i have a bit of advice which he can take or leave is.... f**king naive of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 WO WO WO NELLY !Hold your horses dude, this blokes making a BMW engined RWD Scirocco out of popsicle sticks and copydex.
