wheel swap

[rto488]

I need to know if I could put bigger tires on my 93. Whats the best option if I want different rims from a different car. i should say maybe wider not taller. I appreciate any help on this matter. Thanks

[lessersivad]

Well I'm gonna say it. Use the search option..................

lessersivad, you are correct, but providing a link is more useful.
With our "search" capability it is very hard to find somethings.
I can't even find things I've written at times without a lot of effort.
Now if some one has 50 posts, have at them, they should know were to find things.
Or make an effort anyway.

[lessersivad]

You're right. I shoulda been more helpful.

Yes, I do but note thats my opinion!
Also note this may not be the prime time to stir-up anything!
Just saying layoff the nubies and maybe provide a link for even the not so nubie to start looking for information.
Make the site easier for everybody.
One more suggestion, what if you give lessons on using the search function?

Id be more than happy to. Because it can be more than a little frustrating.:thumbleft:
Where should I post it at? News and Support?

[Pu241]

Don't know but let me discuss this with the other mods/admins, if your serious and I'd like to have it as a sticky somewhere so nubies can get upto speed here faster.
Wondering about creating Newbie read only forum and put some basic stuff in it.
Like how to search.
For example did you know our search function will not search on less than 4 characters, so if you search ALT or VAF you get nothing!

[MONSOON]

Yep its gotta be more than 4 characters. And you definately have to be very specific also.
Theres quite a few that are newbies here but are familiar with vbulletin, but Im certian there are just as many that this is the 1st Forum theyve ever been to.

[Pu241]

See what you can put together and PM it to me, and I'll see if I can get a few people together to review it.

[MONSOON]

Can do. Gimme a little time. I wanna make sure its right.

[Pu241]

No rush, just glad you are will to put the time into it!
Take whatever time you need and I'm happy to review your drafts and ideas.
It should make things easier around here for all of us.

[ohsoslow]
