I'd recommend just making it an "ultimate sticky" so there will only be one at the top of the page because it looks much cleaner that way. I'd also recommend diving it into two main categories (by separate posts) 1st being "hot topics and faqs" 2nd being diys.

but definitely good work.
oh and i personally don't like having everything centered but i know some people do so w/e

No such thing on the forum. (ultimate sticky)

Working on it, just wanted to get things up and running.

It will stay centered for now.

https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-100/18x9-30-a-698550/

and thank god for the oem pop screw thread. i hate those damn things.
