I have never tried refusing a package though so let me know how it goes... Hope this helps.

The problem is... im supposed to receive a 50% refund after writing a revew... it took them 3 month to ship... I know i wont receive that 50% refund in a timely matter

Apparently people think if it's raining at night they don't need their headlights on. It's starting to freeze and way entirely too cold to be dealing with idiots.
Going to be a long night.
I need some Tim bits.

I find it weird how much you Americans like Timmies...it's just something we take for granted here. Like insanely high taxes, or gas stations.

So you did not get the full refund charged back to your CC? I am a bit confused here.

No Tim Horton's, though...

Hmm.. if it is just a <30 minute drive, I don't mind getting the Nexus card. ~ 1 hour, not bothered.

My random thought today: never realized that you can borrow PS3/XBox360 games from the city public library. No wonder that blockbuster is shutting down...

Tim's doughnuts always seem to be so fresh. And the Tim bits are amazing. I like their ice capp as well....
Where I live there isn't much to get excited about...

Blame your socialist leaders.

I used to let those people know by flicking my lights off/on. Now I just let natural selection do its thing.

I'm new to all of this stuff. I'm guessing that's the main affect staggering has? Or am I missing some sort of car guy knowledge here?

You can find tons of debates online, there's no real facts because well...all set ups differ.

But yes, many would argue staggered causes understeer and different steering feedback, don't know how it works on the twins but i'm assuming the same. Though maybe with the right offset you might not notice the difference, but i'm talking out of my ass at this point.

I assume your doing it for looks?

Also do note, you can't rotate tires then!
