    All that said, that wheel is an awesome piece of purpose built engineering. Aesthetic only terms like "stretch" and "poke" do not belong in the same thread as that car/wheel.

    Aah balls, drunk post with insufficient use of sarcasm font or clarity of 'stretch & poke' pisstake!

    But thankyou TJ for telling me what I already knew... Notice the 'for a reason'

    At least you too appreciated the car, which was more the point of the thread, hence the second pic
    Too bad it got lost in shite.

    so needed!

    My intention was to poke fun (pun intended) at the pointlessness of 'stretch & poke' by pointing out something which actually serves a purpose and appears to be what the 'stance' bollocks tries to emulate.

    But I was half cut, and failed!

    I hope you don't plan on being a comedian any time soon, you fail at punch lines. That might be the fault of the alcohol, however usually people are funnier when they are wasted.

    Yeah, I think the alcohol gets lost in the time difference.... we're pissed, they're still at lunch at best. It's never going to work!

    But at least I can laugh at myself when it goes wrong

    Me and Steve should just stick to posting UK humour shit to each other when drunk.
