This might be a stupid question but, why do rice boys run with fat 17-18" rims in the rear with crazy camber and run these black spare rims with getto tires up front??? The reason I ask is, today when I was in our M3 crusing down the road, I hear a car with loud a$$ exhaust behind he chirping its tires coming after me. (seeing that its the most cop infested road in the area and the stupidity of street racing I just kept moving and waited for him to fly by.) So after a few seconds I still hear this loud a$$ black civic coming up behind me. Finally he gets next to me going 40mph. I see the Speed image decals, his team decals, etc... Then he starts to turn up the bass at the light. I sit back a little because I didn't want it to look like were lined up to race. So I'm sitting here listening to his truck rattle to Nelly. I move up a little to get a look at this rice driver! Just my luck! The KING of rice! You know that new fat white rapper that raps that song ugly! Yeah I swear it was him! hahahahahah White rice boy in slammed ugly civics! hahahahaha
Anyway, so the light turns green and I just take off like anyone would normally. So this civic takes off spinning the tires, then suddently he pings the rev limiter and shifts into 2nd chirping the tires badly. Then suddently it pings the 2nd gear rev limiter and he shifts into 3rd chirping the tires again! At this time I was going like 35mph!!!!!! I was like WTF! I was next to him the whole time just crusing as he keeps chirping his tires and hitting the rev limiter. Oh yeah and this thing was loud! He was running with just a header and cat on it with no exhaust! Why???? who knows! Anyway so at the next light I pull up while he turns his system back up to full blast for everyone to hear and I check out the front tires because I had to see what they were. The best look I got was like continential or something like that. Why do they do this! Why put on crappy rims with really sh!tty tires in front while having HUGE chromes on the rear with a low profile tire???
Anyone have an idea?
I'm still in awe! How could he think he could race a E36 M3 when he can't hook up and hits the 2nd gear limiter going like 25 or less mph!!!! hahahahahaha

 

 

Umm how do you know he had a catalytic converter on his car?

I suppose they drive their cars like that to let people know that they have another set of rims with drag radials/slicks on them. You're supposed to be impressed by the fact that they're supposedly hardcore.

 

the "racer" look

 

I swear. Mike has all the frickin' funny *** stories.

Alan

 

Yeah that's the ticket.

 

i think it's supposed to look like a drag car, with beefy traction tires in front...dunno why heavy in back. Maybe he curbed the fronts. Maybe he could only afford 2 18s at once. Maybe he's actually a super-intelligent race-car setup genius who's balancing the car with heavy *** rear wheels. heh. sounds like a sweet race!

 

Easy they drive like that all the time and can't afford they're tire chirping habbit with $140 tires a pop. ..jackasses.
Your just mad cause you know he'd smoke you j/k

 

I knew he had a cat because the exhaust sound was really turbulant sounding like when you run just headers and a cat. I'm use to hearing it out here seeing that all these ricers think its legal! They figure since mod'd exhaust is illegal, why not just run stck headers and cat with out a modd'd exhaust! hahahahah

Yeah I know, it seems like I always end up with these idiots.
In fact accroding to a friend, she just heard that I raced a red teg this morning and lost to it!!!!!! Then I recall a red teg that kept taking off trying to get me to race him as I just rolled on and ignored him!
It appears that now if you don't race them, you just lose!!!! I was like WTF! They red teg has like nothing on it and he beat a my R! I don't think so. hahahahahaah
Damn these racers are stupid

 

****
why cant i get these lamer ricers where i live
i'm in pleasanton, i swear before i got my turbo, EVERYONE would try and race me. after i had my turbo i cruised everywhere and everytime i lined up with someone they would never want to race....i dont know ...kinda bugged me.

i wish that one silver mustang with plates "2QWK4U" would pull up to me again. back when i wasn't turbo'd i took him on the launch and almost beat him but he ended up passing me. if i had my car now and he pulled up, god, what a spanking it would be.

 

I've come up with a theory about having rims in the back and spare lookin tires in the front in FF rice cars. Like someone said, it's for the dragger/racer look. They've probably seen on tv that the fatter tires are usually in the back so they try to copy that style. I've never confirmed this but common sense tells me that the fatter tires belong on the drive wheels, correct? I'm guessing these rice boys don't know that.

for the racer look? hahahahahah I dunno it still seems stupid to me. Why have a racer look? Why not have the real thing?

 

They think the car is RWD? It still comes down to the "racer" look though....

 

Hrmm...I know what you mean about the spares. Although some people who paid alot for their White rims drive around sometimes on their stockers because they say the white rims are a bitch to clean. Some of them willingly admit that it is ricey, but they say they are to lazy to clean them after every drive.

If I had a CW ITR with White rims and Spoon Calipers with aftermarket pads...You'll see me all riced up with spares in the front every other week...hahaha...or until I could afford SW388s.

 

b/c donuts upfront are c00

 

one time I was waiting at a stop light. 4 way intersection.
One group is allowed to make their left turn. This Z28
F-bodyish car makes his turn, and decides to rev on me
while making his turn. In my mind I am lajk "jeah... whatever..."

*rolls eyes*

-AoiB0t, who doesn't rev on anyone... well, I did rev on Yoshi234 once

 

I rev on people. Yeah...so what?

 

does it mean i am a ricer cause i run with my sotcks on the fornt and my volks in the rear at the drag strip? i just don't want to waste the other tires.

 

nobody revs on me and gets away w/ it!!

yoshi - who just laughs at people who rev on me - "take it to the track f00z!!!!" muwhahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

 

Naw, he wasnt spotrin the "racer" look. He just had the other 2 on layaway.

 

what was uo with that illegal street racing racing on the 405 yoshi...that could of been very dangerous...

 

Mike,

It's rice, it's not meant to be understood by the normals. Damn near every ricer I've met doesn't know **** about cars or engineering. The imatate things that the have seen some were else.

I've written rice off as another form of brain washing done by Kragens, Grand Auto, Kmart, and Wall Mart to sell all the accesory crap they can. If they sold a turbo kit you know some moron would buy it and tell me a story about how he bet F355 Berlinata.

Basic rules of rice.
- Bigger is better.
- Louder is better.
- Uglier is better.
- Chics dig it. (I haven't figured that one out yet? WTF)
- They all can beat my ITR. Yeah right.
- They have never been to the race track.
- They have never been to an autoX.
- They run crappy tires.
- They think they know how to drive.
- They think street racing is smart.
- They think street racing is the next olympic sport.

Gravity,

Why would you put the crappy tires up front? The R is FWD so I personally would want the good stuff up front to get some traction. What kind of tires on the Volks?

 

Perhaps with their exaggerated drop, the front camber/toe settings were too extreme that they shredded the tires and have not had the money to replace them. Just a thought....

 

i am not putting crapp tires up front. i just have the more expensive tires on my volks and really don't want to waste the rubber

 

I first time see these IDIOTS when i went to SF for vacations back in 98 and ask them what the hell is these and the reply were
"DRAG LOOKS" and proud of it. Few yrs ago, i saw it migrated to the east coast but thank god it die!!!
So sorry these kind still around in CA.
