22's On a 1998 Infiniti Q45????????????????

[Romeo5k]

I beg ur pardon???? I guess that was supposed to be a joke, so ill take it as one. But, too bad, im too grown and too old to stay with my parents. It would be nice tho.. if i could, i would have everything from japan that can fit on the G50 perfectly. If that comment was not meant for me, my apologies!

[TBrack]

don't pay him any attention, he's always a jerk it seems

[bullittandy]

I agree with you Romeo, I can't stand unsolicited bashing.

[StarPD]

I agree with you Romeo, I can't stand unsolicited bashing.

It wasn't "unsolicited".

A few of you write like 14 year olds.

Learn to spell, use good grammar, and most of all learn to use the CAPS key properly. Lose the wannabe ghetto talk and the teenage abbreviations. "Your" is not spelled "ur", and "I" is supposed to be capitalized.

Everyone makes typos, and occasionally misspells words, but deliberately running sentences together, dropping Caps, and making up slang doesn't make you look cool. It makes you look like you are either ignorant, a high school kid driving your dad's car, or both. Most of the people who drive Infinitis are well educated and mature regardless of their age. Wanting to customize or improve the looks of your car doesn't require you to present yourself as a little boy who failed school.

If you want to take the position that you are free to write any way you like, then you must accept that others are equally free to criticize such.

Spelling and grammar aren't that difficult, and they don't take so much time that you can't afford to use them. So clean up your act or expect others to see you in a bad light, and call you on it.

maybe u havent heard about the grammer reformation amongst the new generation. guess ur 2 old lolzroflcopterlmfaopwndbbq1!1!!1!

now please stop the bashing and get back to the cars

[ILuvNkdChx]

Back to original post...It's your car, do whatever the hell you want! Put a 6" BODY lift on it if you wish! Just make sure you have some extra cash in case YOU do not end up liking the way it looks.

Everyone on here has a different opinion, if they didn't, everybody's car would look the same and NICO would be pointless. Just remember since we do have different opinions, when you ask for others views sometimes you will not like what you hear. I have 18's because I like the way they look, if I liked 22's my car would be wearing those instead.

[Romeo5k]

In what position are you to judge the grammar that someone writes? Who said you had to type perfect English? If you want to be a grammar cop, go to school and be a teacher. If thats not enough get a life. Literally, I am not the one to be trying to criticize. As far as education, it means crap to me if someone has one or not. This is a casual talk, not business casual. Really, if you just really had to get it out of me, yes i have my education and working on masters. So that just shows how ignorant you are to stereotype someone who speaks slang on a forum. For goodness sakes, this is a forum. I am not writing a thesis or nothing. Some people do need to grow up, you are correct. But some need to get the hair out their butt!!!And to a certain extent, when you say ghetto, are you referring to black, cause we can make this a big scene, im known for doing. I hate racist comments and i am taking it like so. You call it childish, i call it tired of dealing with people's ! Sometimes you need to learn to keep comments to yourself. No one asked for your 2 cents. I have my own 2 cents.!! If you couldnt understand me, you could have ignored me. Im sure if i went digging,there is plenty on here that i do not like, but u dont see me crying about it.Oh and for ur info, : ur, u, wtf, and all dat crap is shorthand. No one is trying to type a friggin essay. its faster to say what i said, than to type it. Thats why ppl say roflmao... you try typing that. Its not worth it. If you dont like what i said, oh well, take your trailer park home and cry about it.!And im completely thru with this topic. Because i dont want to be the fool, that argues with a fool!! GOODBYE!

Well spoken Romeo!! I'm really tired of that "ghetto" word being thrown around my damn self! When I first joined, someone stated when they see a Q45 on chrome 20" wheels it's "ghetto" and they picture a heavily tattooed, grilled person. That's ridiculous! I drive a Y33 on 20's and I'm far, very far from that sterotype. I have a Electrical Engineering degree, work for a Fortune 500 company, and earn a great salary. So people, please stop with this sterotype! This is a Q45 forum! Every car on here isn't going to be the same. Stop bashing people when they put pics of their cars saying "it looks like a 4x4" because it isn't LOW enough to fit YOUR standards. You don't know how much time and sweat he has put into the car. Yes, I plan on dropping mine a tad bit to kill some of the fender well space, (Solini is a perfect example of how I want mine to look) but it will never be low like a Honda Civic. If I wanted that, I would have purchased one.

Lets stick to the tread please!!! Solini, don't forget to let me know how the 20's work for your car!!

Read this thread:zerothread/209315

read it. some validity, some BS opinions. personally, i have a problem with those who like to polish turds. not speaking of you specifically, as this is by no means an attack on StarPD. by that i mean a person who uses sterotypes (ie GHETTO) & derrogatory comments about others & expresses it with perfect grammar or "correct forum & english structure" is no more right, intelligent, etc. than the person they are addressing with their comments. it's typically out of glorified ignorance, but i'm no freud, so i won't speculate. i know that there are those who choose to use incorrect grammar for the sake of appearing cool, youthful, etc. that doesn't mean that they are any cooler, or dumber. it's just their choice. i personally have had a paper published in USA Today on collegiate race relations, but that doesn't make me any better of a writer or smarter than ANY of you. it was just my opinions on paper. i write the way i write because i am the most comfortable expressing myself that way. if my points are not understood due to me stepping too far outside the "normal boundaries" accepted in everyday grammar, oh well. but hey, then again, everyone isn't going to gain the same level of understanding from everyone elses comments anyway. that's normal in a society like ours.

you see, i am a product of the same "ghetto" that you so eloquently dismiss in your opinions. i've come a long way from that environment to improve my family's standards of living, however, i still maintain that it has been the most influential factor in my life's successes. thus, your statement/categorization is slightly offensive to me & obviously a few others. i chose to use sarcasm/humor as a way to deflect the true way i felt about your views. because as a whole, i do feel we (Americans) are overly sensitive as a people & i didn't want to play into that. now, we find ourselves justifying our methods of expression (typing in "slanguage") & the adjectives ("ghetto") we choose to use. is it possible that i'm a lazy typist who embraces shorthand & that you may not know the implications of the words you use to describe things? i know the former is true, the latter you'll have to answer for yourself. but to clear the air on my side of this fence, if i type in a manner you don't understand & you feel as though the point is worth comprehension, just ask me what i meant. i'll be happy to write in the king's mighty english (which Americans do not use correctly anyway) to clarify. if not, so be it. on your side of this proverbial fence, it would be my suggestion that you think through the adjectives you choose to use carefully, as you may not be aware of who you're offending or how you are being offensive, with or without proper grammar. just my thoughts...

[paranoidjack]

So, ya, ummm.....22's? Do it!

[Romeo5k]

So, ya, ummm.....22's? Do it!

I dont know... its kinda scary. I know for sure, once i insert 22s, Im a done man. I cant drive the car like i want to anymore.. MAtter fact, i cant drive it like i want to now.. Friggin thing takes off slllllloooooooooooowwwww. I got used to it, and just said F.. it. Someone said, the rims too heavy, and not to mash the gas tooo hard otherwise, ill damage the transmission. So, 22s? MEh , i dont know, still thinking about it.! Actually, altho this may sound wierd, but because of the color on my car i think it would go right..I want my 20s on Vogues (mayo & Mustard) If you dont know what vogues are, hit me.

you keepin it TX for real with the Vogues! it always amazes me how car styling trends change from region to region. i think that's part of why we get so many varied opinions on this 20 or 22 debate.

[db_autotek]

Yeah I see everything in central Florida since it's a melting pot of people from all over the country and world. Today I saw a brand new Charger Daytona R/T Hemi with 24" chrome rims. A high powered muscle car with power-robbing wheels. Personally, I think it's rediculous. But thats just my opinion. I agree with whoever said "in the end it's your money." This is true, it's all in the eye of the beholder.. or beer-holder. lol. I have 17" Fittipaldi wheels with nice fat tires. That's my style, halfhay luxurious and halfway performance. It keeps all the ride-comfort I like while lookin' good. I, personally, just don't get the whole big deal about obnoxiously large chrome rims. Out goes your gas milage and your speedometer is always gonna be wrong. I would stick to 18 at the most, so you can still have some tires on there and keep your ride comfort. But it's your money.

[Solini]

Lets stick to the tread please!!! Solini, don't forget to let me know how the 20's work for your car!!

Sorry man, I was there today but my friend with the 20s left before i got there, I have to go back next weekend to have my headunit installed and will tell him to meet me then

[Jesda]

yeah dat joint is hot! love the blk on blk. major props homie. i want that height so bad but i don't think i'm gona b able 2do the Teins (or any otha springs for that matter). i think i'm stuck "lookin like a 4x4". my driveway has a pretty steep angle & i hav 2 "manuever" 2get in & out w/o scrapin now on the 20z....& if i lower it 2"...? i dont want airbags, & i'm not gona sell my house over this sick love affair i have with this car. am i??? damn grown up decisions

Alright, I can't read that at all. Do you do that on purpose? Please tell me you're a recent immigrant just learning English.

If you don't type in plain English, people can't understand you. That's all there is to it.

[Romeo5k]

i understand!

sorry J. i said i would explain for anyone that didn't comprehend my shorthand, so here's a quick conversion table for the quote.

dat=that, blk=black, props=kudos, gona=going to, b=be, 2do= to do, otha=other, lookin=looking, hav=have, 2=to, 2get=to get, w/o=without, 20z=twenty inch rims, gona=going to.

was that really rocket science? (rocket science=difficult, hard, not easy)

[gjh20]

btw, what headunit are u installin?

No, just wasteful and silly. I -knew- there was a proper English speaker under all that e-slang! Now we can understand each other.

If you are too lazy to type in proper English,what does that say about the importance of the questions you are asking help with? God help you if you use that jibberish in the workplace,or at college-you will not go far with that babbling.
