I understand why your mad but calm down a bit, don't get too hyped because of what someone thinks.
Boss is a pretty cool guy, me and him have had a deal in the past so he's def. nt one of those assholes on here who just talk shit for no reason at all.
I also deal with enough people saying slick stuff to me related to my Tahoe, someone pulled that crap one here a few months ago about the mods I had in my sig. and I snapped just like you, but then realized the newbie POS isn't worth arguing with anyways!

Yeah, I mean I've seen his posts and he can be really helpful, and I REALLY like the mods he's done. But I just hate it when people think this isn't my car. It really is! If you knew me in person you'd know that.

Maybe he thinks I'm claiming to own all 3 cars in my sig myself. If so, then I could definitely see where he's coming from. But no, the Tundra is my dad's and the Cadillac is my mom's. I just don't put "MINE: MOM'S: DAD'S:" in my sig because I thought it sounded a little show-offy.


If it was a newb who said it then yeah I'd just tell them off right there. Boss is a respected and frequent poster and I really didn't expect it from someone like him, so I wouldn't mind taking the time to post proof for him, but not some newb.

I agree though Nnaboy I bet you get a lot of shit for yours too. Yours looks reaallyy nice, I stole some of your ideas haha.

No problem with stealing ideas, I have done it with many on here lol!
But Boss is cool for the most part like most on here, RT can be pretty annoying sometimes, but he's cool for the most part too!

Yeah, it's just personalities I guess haha. But some people at school think my parents just have money to no end and all this shit. I didn't get my car by just dealer-hopping with my parents and picking out whatever I wanted with no spending limit.

My parents sold a large amount of property on their subdivision and my birthday present was that they agreed to buy a new car for me as long as that I take over insurance and everything when I turn 17. So I got 1 year of free insurance, but when I turn 17 I should have enough to pay for about another year's worth, maybe more, since I've been working. I didn't want a truck, I wanted a Tahoe because that's what I grew up learning how to drive, I find it easier and I like the extra row of seats.

Well, I've proved that I own this car before, I guess he just wasn't around when I did it. I think I posted my proof on Tahoeforum.com, before it stopped working.



So you're saying that I move the rear wheels directly to the front...and move the front wheels to the rear, but swap them? If that's all it is then, yeah I can do that with my dad's help but I don't see him until this weekend.

yup exactly..very simple..its just to ensure that the tires wear evenly..rear tires straight up, fronts go back and cross. simple as that

Only BOSS knows for sure, but I think he was referring to the OTHER cars in the signature. He never suggested that you don't own the Tahoe -- I think he's wondering why you'd bother putting your parents' cars in there, too. Maybe it's a bandwidth/page loading thing. Me, I don't really get it, either (I have a couple other cars, but there's no relevance to this site, and so I don't list them), but it's not my site.

Take it easy, folks! :)

unless they are directional tires, you don't want to cross those...
The rears go straight to the front and the fronts cross to the back. Why wouldn't you cross them? Do you mean if they ARE directional tires you don't cross them?

ya, that's what i meant, sorry...if they are directional and you cross them, the tread design will be backwards. and everyone will tell something different as far as how to rotate tires... cross fronts with each and rears with each other, front right to left rear and front left to right rear, fronts to rear and rears to front, etc.... every shop will do it their way. my dad's shop just does fronts to rear and rears to front, no crisscrossing, but that's not to say other ways are wrong...
