No probs dude. It takes quite a bit to insult me. 
I was just stating that there actually are some unexpected benifits from running 17" rims. I expected it to handle pretty crap when I bought them, but I was just too fed up with having no grip to care.
The do make turning the wheel a bit harder, but increased castor could fix that (not much of a solution though I suppose. ) They also make the brakes work a lot harder which is annoying when you're repeatedly hammering on them... That could be my rear drums overheating, but I don't think so, I suspect the extra weight further from the centre, plus the increased grip from the 215s up front means the brakes work harder anyway...
Could also be the cheapo $7 brake pads that I'm using..... hehehe
Gotta get me a pair of Metal Kings one of these days....
