And AP1 wheels on an AP2 wouldn't be too out of the ordinary. Ross has AP2 wheels on his AP1. Don't be so quick to flame.
There are lots of people w/ AP2 wheels on their AP1, but I've never heard of AP1 wheels on an AP2 before, other than a couple people who got cheap sets they use for the track or for snow tires.

Oh, and to the creator of this thread...if this is for real that is.... sorry to hear of your plight. But when certain facts are apparent, like they are in this story, its just hard to "feel for you"

What really gets to me though is people not know how to drive this car trying to push it on public roads like this and then wrecking. And then saying shit like:

I've only had my car for maybe 2 months now and I didnt realize that the back end would kick out on me like that!
Oh and the icing on the cake

oh well
If you learn to drive the car first, you won't end up in accidents like this on the road.

Post count: You PPD is based on the amount of time on the board. It'll be high until the first 24hrs pass.

AP1 vs. AP2: I can't tell from that picture that the rear is either one definitely. Also, I can't tell if the door panels have the tweeter pod on them. Too grainy a picture.

You'd have to be going at a decent clip with your foot in it to be 180* turned around. Notice the huge divider in the road and the truck parked. Having made a left turn once upon a time on a cold night and after having a few, I shifted mid-turn and was in the throttle. Almost saved it, but the result was "this-side-that-side-this-side-some-more." Curbed the car facing opposite of traffic. Busted control arm, yadada-yadada.
