wow, gay.

Adam if you go 8.5, strap on 255/40's, John n' justin both agreed that it looked really nice since it filled up the wheel gap better than my 245's.

8.5 rp03's don't have much concavity as the 9.5 +38. They(9.5") only bend in approx 1.75" from the outter lip of the rim.

Staggered rims may alter some performance but it'll go unnoticed if all your aggressive driving takes place on highways n' such.

245's on 9.5 +38 will probably not need a roll even at full load. but as rev said 255's+ will need a roll.

I think I just picked up a new hobby; spewing **** out of my ***. It works pretty well over at my intern, well enough to almost get someone fired.

From my experiences with TireRack i've noticed that anything that i order OTHER than tires may take longer than expected. Their tire shipment is usually fast as hell. They have a nevada wearhouse n' it still seems to get here within 24-36 hours.

Example of me spewing bullshit out of my mouth.

Doctor: This X-Ray don't do me any good. It have no diagnostic value at all to me. Why did you take such an X-Ray?

Me: (Starts bullshitting to save my ***) This is what I was taught in class, in fact, this is the new Camp-Coventry method where you go through the anterior side instead of the postierior side. If you look here (This is where I grabbed the marker and started bullshitting and circling key structures) and here, this gives you a very nice view of the joint spaces.

Then I forgot what I said but something about my method is 100x better than the workers there and some how my BS worked and the doctor believed me.

Basically, I wanted to save my own *** by BS'ing and it worked. The best part about the doctors I work with is that they don't know **** about X-Rays, they just look at them.

True story
