Yeah, I put my tires on the opposite direction and it caused my tranny to **** up. Suddenly reverse was forwards and D just made it go in reverse. So I drove it around town a couple days with my reverse lights on, then got it fixed. Man, you guys dont know how much fun it is to go 90 mph backwards in reverse. I had the first RWD, Real wheel TURNING celica!
.. ok, yeah, I dunno man- yes, probably, because the tread lines; made to grip and keep water away from the tire- won't be pointed the right way- get them fixed! |
