Why, gosh... I've discovered both who has the highest level of politeness and who may have the lowest in the same thread, that was quick!
Should I have said I'd praise a Galant with Sport Edition CD's as well as one with BBS RG-R's? Maybe I wouldn't have found out so much about your on-line personality?
Rock on, dude. May your friends be many and your enemies few.
You're probably a great guy, and I just get a bad impression reading your posts... BTW-I liked the Sidewinders on your ride better.
What I've often found in forums is that those who often complain about being hit with neg responses when they express their opinion are those who make blanket statements.
(sob... I'm so sensitive!)
For example, "the sw388's are ugly as sin" versus "I think sw388's are ugly as sin" or something similarly non-antagonistic.
It's not but a few more keystrokes...

I drive my fit to work everyday. Thats it. I may take it on a roadtrip or two. Other than that, it doesnt see any track time, i don't drift it around corners, and i dont auto-x it. To me there is no sense in buying $400 a piece wheels that weight 5 lbs lighter than knock-off's. I also have a lot of bills and hopefully moving within the next few months. I cant afford to buy wheels that are going to cost me $1200+. I'm not one of those people that can go rack up credit card bills on a monthly basis.
I do appreciate a nice pair of rays, or bbs, and would love to have them, but they are way out of budget. My konigs are fine with me, because there are more important things in life than whose wheels are real or fake. They look good and thats all that matters.

I really like gbaby a lot, but sometimes I'd like to see someone step up and verbally bitch slap him silly...... You have to admit he has a lot of passion even if at times it verges on being inappropriately zealous and superficially elitist in nature.

I just like to get a rise out of people a lot of times, imo people try to be too nice on forums, I'd rather learn from a guy who's a jerk all the time than learn nothing at all
I mean yeah in thread's like the pw thread, that's a place to be cool, but in technical sections there's nothing wrong with some heated debate

One day you'll get a rise out of the wrong guy. But sittin' at home behind a keyboard you may never realize that.
I see that you quote from Jeremy Clarkson in your sig - he's filthy rich and a celeb, that's why he gets away with being a prick. You are neither.
(he's also funny... and it's really just an act!)
But, that being said -you don't annoy me near as much as others I've read in other forums. At least you use proper spelling and grammar. Maybe there's hope for your generation yet...
Do you think that you'll only learn anything from guys that are being jerks all the time?
You really might learn a thing or two from a nice person.

I noticed your Vet status... I was an 81mm Mortarman in 1st Battalion, 4th Marines stationed in 29 Palms during the '80s. My dad did 30yrs in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He retired to the Virgin Islands after he got out, but poor health finally brought him here to Texas where my brother and I can keep an eye on him. He digs my Fit, although his dream car is a Mini Cooper S.

I have Conti Pro Contacts on flat black Enkei RPF1s... There is another 0341 FitFreak besides you..... My Bn. was in and out of the same forward support base in Northwest I Corps as 1/4 in 68-69, I humped a radio with 3/9.

and in person while still a jerk i'm not nearly this bad
as for Clarkson, I <3 Top Gear and I just think that's a very nice quote.

All im saying is i would love more then anything to have the real thing. But if they make fakes that look good then so be it. Between school, credit cards, car payments and rent, fake stuff is fiiiine with me. I don't need the name brand/real thing to make me happy.
I do agree on the people that buy the fake wheels and buy stickers and put them on the fake wheels is lame.
