Can we have a separate forum for wheels and tires?

On boards where suspension/brakes/wheels/tires are all in the same forum....95% of threads become one of the following:

1. Will these wheels fit in this offset?
2. Which style/size/color wheel should i get?

These are important questions, but all the suspension and brake discussion suffers because all those threads get hidden among the wheel stuff. It's so much better for everyone when the wheel/tire forum is separate...more discussion of all topics instead of one thing taking over.

Just an idea. It works well on nasioc.

WhiteGDB · 01-03-2012, 02:06 AM

Plus. Infinity.

Dave-ROR · 01-03-2012, 02:18 AM

Definately agree.

chulooz · 01-03-2012, 02:38 AM

Yes. I hope your idea springs results so the many wheel threads wont damper other drivetrain discussions.

Another vote here to split the forums.

Midnight Run · 01-03-2012, 05:15 AM

completely agree.

You mean one forum for brakes and suspension an one for wheel an tires? Yes!

Racecomp Engineering · 01-03-2012, 11:04 AM

^ yes, one forum for brakes + suspension, and another for wheels + tires.

glad to see people agree!

Yay for clever posts

A separate wheels forum would be a great idea, people don't have the self discipline to stick to a single thread so might as well round em all up in one place.

Works on Scion life really well

+1. I completely agree.

The forum will get proper sections and sub-sections once we get real close to the launch. There really isn't enough traffic here yet or a flood of new threads that forces us to need these sections right now. But we will get them soon.

Can we elect our Mods? That'd be pretty cool

I'd vote for Ichi, Wings, PIT (when he's on lol), Zaku, Giccin, Dave-ROR, some others too

Honorable mentions to a lot of others passed that 900 post mark. I know for sure I'm missing some candidates,

BUT it's all up to Hachi, our Patriot leader lol
