So just cause it is boosted means it can't tuck tire? And if does tuck tire, that means it's going to break axles? LOL are you sure about that?

there are a TON of cars with meaner fitment that smitty's (no offence smitty lol) that are boosted and don't break axles.

for instance:





Your argument is invalid.

LOL I was just sayin that IIIIIIII just wished it had better wheel fitment. I still love the car no doubt, and don't get me wrong, i know the logic behind your statement; no stretch, fat rubber, more traction. But for MYYYY preference, better fitment would be ideal.

I thinks you got me mixed up with someone else.
I never said anything about wheel fitment.
It's not Lexus/Toyota so I could care less if it had wheels at all.

untrue
can see many top drifters slammed like crazy.


- If done right with all supporting mods you'll be fine.
- If some kid on the street just gets some coilovers and drops the car all the way to the ground and trys to drift without any professional adjustments and no supporting mods (control arms, braces, sway bars, professional adjustments to caster/camber/toe, etc...) then yes stuff is gonna breaky break..

Just because your mechanic says one thing doesn't mean it's true. I went to my mechanic to get my oil changed today (because it's hot as ***** and I don't want to do it myself). I went there and asked if he had free time today to change my oil, he said yes. So I told him I was going to run to the store to get oil (mobile1). He said "no, you don't need mobile1, I have castrol oil for you". Then he said that Toyota recommends Castrol and it is the best for my car... If I tell everyone to stop using Mobile1 and switch to castrol just because my mechanic said so doesn't make it true.
