  1. hmmm good point. I'll ask my mum exactly what she was told
  2. Shut up Mark... :p Anyway to everyone else: the tires have already been rotated, so the wear is pretty much even
  3. The tyres on our Mazda 323 are getting worn out, and we've been advised to change them. Thing is though, where do we put the new tyres on? Being a FWD car, the logical (at least to us) decision would be to change the front tyres. However, my mum received an email the other day stating that new tyres should be placed on the rear, to minimize chances of oversteer, particularly in wet conditions, especially since it is easier and more natural to correct understeer than oversteer. That email made sense, but it does go against what we're normally used to. Advice?
  4. Wow they sound really good. Best thing of all IMO is that you were thoughtful enough to put up a preview so we won't have to go through all the trouble of installing the files, only to find out we don't like the new sound. Top work!
  5. This sucks. Toyota really doesn't seem concerned at all about not having a proper sports model in their range, do they? :mad:
  6. Speedracer, that's a seriously freaking awesome fireworks shot. I WANT THAT FOR MY WALLPAPER!!! :bow:
  7. Ooh, if you want to try to change the rim texture, you'd better contact Iced_Bullet or Speed or any of the other modders on the forum. Wouldn't it be easier though to find one of the car rims that are already in the game that resemble the one you want?

  8. The most evil car on the planet: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/1carfreak1/Test%20Drive%20Unlimited/20080529010007edit.jpg (and it isn't even black!)
  9. Well if you only want to replace the original rim with something from another car (for example, replacing the Ferrari 575 rims with the Skyline rims), then you don't need any special programs. Simply go to C:\Program Files\Atari\Test Drive Unlimited\Euro\Bnk\Vehicules\Rim (if C drive is where you installed the game), and replace the rim files. One thing to note is that the new file MUST be smaller than the original file, otherwise it won't work. If you want to make your own rims however, or change the colour of one of the original rims, then you do need special programs. But I don't do that, so you're better off asking Iced_Bullet. If that's too confusing for you (sorry), then look here: http://forum.tdu-central.com/showthread.php?t=3297
