handgrenade 189 Report post Posted August 27, 2014 So there is an autocross coming up, and even though to be "competitive" it is in the best interest to grip drive some of it .. we all know that i'm probably just going to rip skids. so instead of lighting up my good condition road tyres, does anyone have a pair or set of wheels with tyres for sale in auckland that will clear e36 m3 rear brakes? happy with skinny non warrantable tyres etc. or without tyres is fine, I have a few pairs of 17s which need destroying (and lots of 16s but not sure if a 16in wheel will clear?) Need by this weekend!! if no tyres, is anyone happy to lend me some rims?! I'll chuck some tyres on. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) And how why did they let that guy roast his clutch for so long???! ?!?! Probably coz it wasnt thier Vette at a guess!? TBH he should have known, a slipping clutch has a very different feeling to spinning tyres, not to mention a completely different smell. Any car spinning tyres doesnt want to stay dead still Edited August 28, 2014 by _Ethrty-Andy_ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
