Dont even start hombre-your just mad Im not letting you do the install. How is your cousin going from 22's to 17's extra rotating mass? It obvious it will be slower just wanted others feedback who have done it unlike you. If I wanted your input Thadius I will ask you when I see you almost everyday. How else did I get your pic for my avatar!

 

O I didnt say I didnt spin the tires. I spun like a ************. I was just saying it can be done and has been. I thought he was asking if it hurt anything. I spun really bad without bottle even with cal tracs. With alot of horsepower in our trucks the only way your going to not spin is maybe the 4-link. I will let you know about that

 

depends on the wheels. my 20's only weigh 8lbs more than my stock steelies do wheel and tire together. cant really tell any difference

 

i sprayed on the street with a 150 shot. its fun but dont plan on going anywhere, especally if you have low pro tires. i used the nitrous more for burnouts than i did for racing.

and if you are waiting till 35 to spray your missing out on half of the fun the white smoke cloud at twenty (while it doesnt help your e.t at all) is funner than crap

 

you are a space cadet, het went from aluminum 22's to triple chrome plated 18's, the wheels alone accounted for 13 lbs a piece, the tires were about 7 lbs a piece heavier.

now mike if you take your shoes off & count your fingers & toes you will see that the math adds up to extra rotating mass.

 

Look I know your the brains behind Trucks,Horsepower TV,Overhaulin,Rides, HotRodTv,Monster Garage and you designed these trucks and thats cool. If I wanted the advice from someone who lives 5 minutes away from me then I would ask you face to face not on the internet. I was asking someone who has sprayed on 20's and up if there is anymore negative affect in their opinion. Since you have not done so it isnt for you to answer. I dont plan on going to the track with my 20s on or anything. I just wanted to know if anyone had done so and what they thought. Damn
I dont care what happened to your rearend or your cousins because neither of you were spraying. Thats all I was askign about!

 

mike, by the time you spray you might be close to my hp #"s on straight motor, what you seem to not understand is that spraying is really insignificant, the physics of x(horsepower) pushing y (5000 lb truck) in combination with increasing unsprung weight z (rotational mass) on an already weak factory drive train. Then you through in that you have changed the pinion angle (that creates a higher stress load on the drivetrain) and you have the combination for failure. Which again as I stated before I would like to see you do this so that I can make the labor sales this month. I chimed in because sometimes you are gay like when I descreened your maf & you started convulsing in my garage saying that you read on the internet that I needed to take it out slowly because it could damage the maf

I will trash your threads at will for this reason.

By the way, the shackles I helped you install this past weekend, well I they are in backwards.....lol...

 

LMAO--You talk so much **** its funny. You F'd my thread up you wetback. I wasnt asking about any hp #'s just a simple ? that was answered by others besides you. If I wanted to know aboutunsprung weight and rotational mass I would have asked. Anyway I gained 100 extra lbs with the 20's over stock and stayed at the same height so it isnt that huge of a difference but Im sure youll read some paragraph from one of your service guys since you arent! Like I said before you have told me all of this before thats why I was asking people who have done so and what the result if any were. You sure talk alot of **** to someone who runs errands for you. You must not of gotten your daily fix of The Tony Danza Show you ********. Oh and see if you use my jets tonight when you get spanked by that v-6 Mustang. Sorry about this BS guys but thanks for the help anyway!

 

RUNS ERANDS! WHO INSTALLED YOUR SCREEN? WHO HELPED YOU INSTALL YOUR SHACKLES? WHO PERTED YOUR THROTTLE BODY? WHO POWEDERCOATED YOUR CALIPER BRAKETS? WHO RE INSTALLED YOUR SUBWOOFER & PUT THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF SCREWS BACK IN THE BOX? WHO GAVE YOU THE BATTING FOR YOUR BOX & MADE YOUR **** HIT HARDER? WHO HOOKED YOU UP ON THE T-N-T KIT? HOW DID YOU GET YOUR 20'S? HOW DID YOU GET THE RUBBER FOR YOUR 20'S?


Oh yeah that was me, damn, I sure do alot of **** for you to complain about picking up a nitrous tank that benifits you. Damn! maybe you should just let me tea bag you!
