Wheel and tire forum?

Any chance we could have a forum just for that since it's a pretty popular thing for people? Right now you pretty much have to look through 3 different forums to see what people are doing. Anyways just a suggestion

Re: Wheel and tire forum?

I suggested this a while back, but its apparently too much work for our moderators or something like that. I think it would be a good idea too, but if it would be more trouble than its worth then its pretty pointless. I find that the search feature does help (sometimes).

It had nothing to do with "too much work". I did present the topic to the staff, to which we did discuss the issue, when the suggestion was last raised several months ago. There was mixed results. I'm not saying the idea is closed for the future, but the last time it was discussed, we came to a conclusion that the current setup worked and we couldn't see any big problems with it.

Thanks.

Yup, there just wasn't enough support for it. Doesn't mean it will never happen though.

Re: Wheel and tire forum?

I'd like to know, what was the reason for not making a wheel/tire forum. just because the current idea of wheel/tire with suspension forum works fine? I agree it does work this way, but I still think there is a lot of knowledge to be gained if there was an individual focus on wheels/tires.
