CUT BUDDY Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 in the defense of the lifted car game.....your ride is determined by what u use or used to lift. Just like in car audio, ur install has alot to do with the way ur system performs. Its the same thing with riding big wheels. If u use spacers and lift knuckles then thats what its going to ride like (some bullshit). Spindles, lift cups from "bigboilifts" give a factory or close to a factory ride. Using lift coilovers, longer springs and other cheap stuff will give u a hard/stiff ride. I have a G-body that Im lifting for 24s....a 295/35/24 tire and Im letting one of big Boi's installers do it. Ive riden in a car that had 26s on it that this same guy lifted and if u closed ur eyes while he was driving, u couldnt tell that much pof a difference. Its ignorant to say it gives a hard ride just because everybody uve seen, or talked to that had big rims on a car had a bullshit lift and took shortcuts. Everybody doesnt take their vehicles to the jackleg. Thats just as ignorant as somebody saying "Imma get a pair of 10s because a 18 doesnt hit notes like a 10". (Im not saying u or anybody else in here is ignorant, but that statement was). Right now Im getting up the money to buy 22s for my Thunderbird.....I can fit them on the stock suspension with a 30series.

CUT BUDDY Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 in actually u'll have a better ride if u lift and go with 22s and a 30series v.s. going with 20s on a 25 series tire. It wont be that much to get it lifted....because u probably only need about a 2" lift. U can clear the wheels on the stock suspension but the lift would give u room to turn and play with. I would give u suggestions but I cant say another forums name on Steves site. PM me if u are interested....big ups to Rell for recognizing real with that statement earlier about tucking TEAM MechMan Alternators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(255/30r22) i know this has to do with tire size, but i have clue as to what these numbers mean. care to elaborate 255 is the tire tread width in millimeters 30r is the profile or aspect ratio(side wall) And of course the 22 is the rim diameter in inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rell Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 No magical powers. Once you get some air shocks and the rims and tires just bolt them on. Dont mess with adapters I wouldnt do it...Just get the right bolt pattern rims for your car and you be ready to go. You might want to search google for all the info on your car.
