New forum..Tires/Wheels etc

They're not really Tech/General Engine and not really Chassis/Suspension.

Just a thought...

Might be a good idea... theres always questions on backspacing and tire width popping up.

Exactly!! That's why I thought it woud be a good idea, wih all the backspacing and 4th gen/Corvette wheel questions, which tires you running, etc.

I also think it is a great idea. There is too many questions on wheels and they just clog up other areas. There should be a place just for wheels and tires. Im all for it

Opinions on tire properties and how they react from other users would be helpful and doesnt really fit under any other forums.

i would think that wheels and tires are a part of the suspension, seeing as thry are the parts that connect the suspension to the road.

however, i could see a seperate forum for wheels and tires. mainly because of the backspacing questions.

have to see what dirk says.
