Tanabe Coilover

WoW! Man, very nice-looking ride... but I'll bet you couldn't squeeze a flippin' dime between your rubber and wheel wells!

I think you may need to lower it... looks too high!

Man, my @$$ rubs the seat just sitting still, and my face feels like it's rubbing the computer screen just lookin' at that drop!

Looks good though.

Oh man, he ragged you bud, and did it in a way you didn't even notice!

Man, I see some stuff on this forum from time to time that keeps me in stitches for hours. I think the last time I laughed this hard was when some guy asked a new Fit owner if their ride smelled like "weed" when he went to pick it up... because his smelled like some dealer guy ripped a pipe in his!" LMAO! I still roll on that one... it's like a Cheech and Chong movie or something!

Anyway... you gotta see the humor, right? You ragged on his ride, and he comes back asking you why you have a lot of "red rep power"! LMAO!

Oh, but he didn't try to ignore that issue at all! Lol, he ignored it, and threw it right back at you!!!

MK Donz - 3 points
555sexydrive - 1 point (He got you, man!) LMAO!

Lol... Hey, don't rag on the man's ride!!!

I can't seem to understand the joy of having tires that rub...... It seems like it is being equated to being able to step on your dick but you wouldn't want to do that would you?

Actually at first, this is what I thought to be honest. Instead I gave the benefit of the doubt to MKDonz and that he was seriously asking why. If it was a backhanded slap, so be it. I don't think I really ragged on his ride, I asked what tire he was using because the pic showed a 205 and he stated he had a 215. I won't lie, the style is not my thing and I believe I said something of that nature, but did wish him luck in getting it all figured out.

MKDonz, if you feel I was calling you out on your choice of style with your vehicle, well my apologies for that. It's hard for me to relate with going for style over purpose since I love beating on vehicles I own. And I'll reiterate (not specifically to you, but in general) what I posted in another thread, don't take so seriously the words that are presented on a forum or in life, they are after all just that words spoken. Thin-skinned individuals really must hate life.

I didn't take it that you were "ragging" on his ride, so-to-speak... but he may have! Hence, and again, the "red reps" comment!

Either way, it made me laugh hysterically. Reading it again made me roll all over again just now.

If his intentions were what I thought, that's just a classic "turn the attention away from yourself" response!

All in good fun!

No, no... I was only being facetious about dropping further! That's why I said you couldn't squeeze a dime between your rubber and your wheel wells/fenders. Sorry, just a little dry American humor here.

BTW, the pic above? Looks really nice... clean! I'm not a huge fan of the stretched tire thing, personally... but regardless, your ride DOES look nice.

I kinda' wish the Fit was either all-wheel drive (like the Lamborghini Murcielago. I know, a REALLY ridiculous comparison! ), or rear wheel drive. I could then justify using a staggered wheel setup -- I like the "staggered" look.

Anyway, nice pic above.
