Joe, you got nothing to prove to those guys http://www.organicgrocerydeals.com/forums/images/icons/ThumbsUp014HL.gif

Now, if you would like to be a good moderator in their eyes, the first step is to be a policeman. Are you law enforcement related?

No PO PO related here, I know they are watching but my other reasons are that I would like to be involved in the fairness that this site seems to express. Plus I have a lot of experience handling different personalities being a formen and surperintendent for a large construction Co.

If offset is 54mm range, yes. Got to watch some of those, as they make replicas to fit 84-87 w/ 32/38mm offsets. Obviously it would fit, but stick out 3/4" further than stock.

he said it is from a 2001 with a 265 17 tire he says it is a 9.5 but is not a C5 front a 8.5 or because it is not a 245 it jumped up to a 265 it is a 9.5 ?

You confused me a bit here. Stock C5 is 8.5 fronts and stock C5Z is 9.5.
Stock tires for C5Z since this is a 9.5 is a 265/40/17 tire. Offset will be fine.
You can put a 275/40/17 on a 9.5" wheel.

Ya I know, me too. The guy told me it was an extra wheel he bought when he bought a set for his 2001 he never used. he said it is a 17 inch wheel for a 265/40/17, it is a replaca Z06 he does not know the backspacing. I want to use it on the rear of my 95 with 275/40/17. this is brand new and I can get it for $45. Chrome

I saw the CF moderator application once.
I don't remember all the questions but here are the ones I do.
IIRC the correct answer to all these was "yes".
1. Do you hate your mother?
2. Were you bullied as a child?
3. Do you hate watching others have fun?
4. Do you like to ban people and laugh about it?
5. Do you think people should be banned for having an opinion?

If you can remember some please post them.

I ask you as a favor to keep away from the insults and attacks. At the same time, if something offends you in this section, feel free to bring it to my attention. We are all adults here.

Nah, just did it the old fashion way and paid my dues. You know, with money. You got any?

:above:It is funny you ask, More that you could ever dream about in your life time. You asked. Oh you can have my barn bucks or what ever there called. See if I were a Mod I would transfer them to you and you could pretend you have money too.

Dude, I will be the FIRST to tell you that I don't have much money. See, I don't need to gloat or brag, or express my financial situation through a clever username or post pictures of my "stuff". I am a poor boy from Arkansas with a mediocre education, but I do have a quick wit, a sharp sense of well being and a biting, sharp grasp of the realization that all men were not created equal. I have never let that stop me from being an asshole though.

Enough is enough. I'm all for letting things play out but it's pretty clear at this point that nothing good is going to come of this one.

I've been wanting to use this picture for a while. :thumbs:
