I named mine "4 Play". I'm a firm believer to do whatever floats your boat. You want your ride looking like a "donk" then go for it. In case you have'nt figured it out yet. No matter what you post about anything, you'll get a hundred different opinions on it, some good, some bad, so don't be offended by the bad ones.
I'll not give you my opnion on this issue. I think your mind has been made up awhile back, so you'll find out soon enough what they are like. "Moon"

I'm trying to get the gist of this thread and how it got to where it is now. I've read through it and I can't find where anyone said "its a bad thing" as stated in post #10 other than a reference to what you yourself said. Also in that same post -
just lookin for feedback....and unforseeable tech/mechanical issues I may run into before trying them...nothing more...not advice as to whether or not to try them...
after saying in the first post -
I got a 5 x 100 set in my basement ....do i pull 'em out or what???
Which sounds like you're...what...asking for advice as to...wait for it...whether or not to try them? And now the discussion is about naming cars? What did I miss? Put the 20s on. That's the only way you'll find out if they work. Obviously, there isn't much of a knowlege base when it comes to 20s on HHRs. We went through this same thing on the GTO site concerning the late model, new age type GTO. They don't work well on those.

That comment about naming cars was aimed squarely at me, its OK, I have a thick skin.

Been naming my cars and trucks ever since I got my first one at age 12, sometimes the names changed or evolved, or like my yellow Z-28....it got changed to "Tweety Bird" by my girlfriend in high school.

How ironic that Tweety's life ended when I wrapped it around a tree.

The OP was "just lookin for feedback" among other things, as anyone who's been here for a while can tell you, floating something like that out there is going to get you some things you don't want to hear.

I have no problem with naming cars. But your car names are in your signature. They weren't in the thread. So should we discuss your "Duckman: Private Dick/Family Man" quote?

Should I infer that you either like the quote from the Private Duck, or that it offends you and I should change the "quote of the week" early?

No, no, I like the quote. In fact, I like the 'quote of the week' idea.

Thanks, its just something I do to see who notices and maybe to make someone smile or laugh...and sometimes even think.
