Rant about EVOM also need pictures of anyone running FD RX7 wheels.

**EVOdoug** · 03-09-2010, 08:44 PM

*I need pictures of the barrel and back of the face on the wheels that will fit our brakes. There are two different versions.

So in my quest to find some FD RX7 wheels to run some Hoosier QTP's on this summer I made this thread. My intention was to figure out which set EVO guys are running and the issue with brake clearance.

http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-tir...cers-help.html

The thread is full of people confused about which set of wheels will actually fit our brakes. The thread is also pretty old and whored out so I posted up a thread requesting pictures from people with the setup to figure out once and for all which wheels will indeed work. I noticed my thread disappeared so I made another and recieved this.

Merged the last one there. This is not a FD forum. Do not keep starting threads on this. Use the one you have.

Thanks.

I thought the forum was all about the information gained from fellow members. I mean this has everything to do with an EVO and will answer a question that many of us have. I started another thread and sent 2 lovely pms to SMIKEEVO which im sure will result in a ban. Rant off.

Sorry for ranting and wasting bandwidth. Thanks to whoever just posted in there. You said something similiar to what I said in my pms haha. Dictatorship is awesome!

Somebody on EvoM changed my sig to , "I like ponies and sheep'" lol... anyway...... Soooo..... I responded in your thread as follows... I will get banned... But I never go there anymore anyway.....

I know that your focus VSVT is "One of 589 that are Pitch Black and have a blue interior", but that uber-awesomeness has nothing to do with whats being asked, quit being a sac snacker and let the car guys run the forum... This may be a FD question, but has nothing to do with an FD>... I bet your not even a mod on a focus forum, and that burns you up.....{thumbup}

Buschur Racing FTW!!!<<<<< This equals automatic ban!!! ^^^^^ This equals:lol:

He tried telling me the answer was in the thread which it was not. I made a simple thread requesting pictures so all the confused people can see first hand which set will work. I explained everything but all I recieved was an arrogant attitude and threats.

**EVOdoug** · 03-09-2010, 09:49 PM

A response to why some of my posts were edited and deleted.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was rude and childish. One post, one topic.

No, this is not an FD forum, why would a bunch of Evo people know. Only 2 of the people in that thread have ran these rims. Compared to the foot traffic that section sees should tell you something. If you wanted those answers ASAP, you should have asked on an FD forum.

I have threads that are over 3 years old that are still being used or referenced. One thread, believe me, it helps for people looking for information.

**EVOdoug** · 03-09-2010, 09:55 PM

**EVOdoug** · 03-09-2010, 09:57 PM

so many of them have completely forgotten what the forum was intended for.....god forbid you try to increase your knowledge and everyone elses on a subject matter that is out of the norm.....

**ReyRey** · 03-09-2010, 10:05 PM

This site doesn't have enough content to go that route, and based on the limited traffic it probably won't for a while. The problem on EvoM is that there is so much content that it becomes difficult to search. Having 50 threads all asking the same question does not help that problem which is why new threads on commonly discussed topics are merged or closed.

**antilag_200** · 03-10-2010, 04:02 PM

^ that is why it is important to add technical data on to this site.

I know for a fact that if I posted a lot of the stuff that I do on EVOM, I wouldn't get a response.
However if I make a post about my super awesome JDM lights... I will get flooded with responses.

**David Buschur** · 03-10-2010, 07:12 PM

Well your thread here got off topic cause most of us hate what goes on over on evom.

I do not know the answer to your wheel question and they aren't going to know on an FD site because they don't know EVO's, so that suggestion from a mod on evom is funny.

I hate to say this but I'd do a search for who's running them and PM them.

I believe the wheels you need are off the 3rd gen RX7 though, I THINK.

**2fast4you** · 03-10-2010, 08:35 PM

yes you are looking for 3rd wheels. if you are looking for new ones try transwheel.com thats wear we get all are reman rims from at the shop.

Thanks and the thread is not off topic at all. I wanted to point out how ridiculous EVOM mods are to even the lowliest of us. I know what wheels I need, I just need to see a picture of the back of the face so I have something to go off of when looking at wheels with tires on them. The barrel is the easiest way to tell but obviously tires make that impossible.

**dsmrunnah** · 03-13-2010, 04:35 AM

I believ the FD rims require a 20mm spacer for the front to clear.

What David said^^^^^^^^ You want to P.M. a member named RAIF on evom as he was one of the first that I had ever seen use them and like the post above this shows you have to use the 20mm spacer for the front wheels to clear the calipers.

**mullen** · 03-13-2010, 05:11 PM

i believe dd man is runnning them on his 1g talon, but i believe they are the same backspacing..i may be wrong bc i have never looked into, id pm him

**EVOdoug** · 03-13-2010, 07:44 PM

I have figured out what I need from some random pms....thanks guys for the understanding.....
