Default Tires, lifts, bumpers, etc. having their own forum?

Rather than have one enormous sticky in the advanced xj talk section for all things lift and tire that gets ignored, why not break things into their own sections all together. Like the outlines they used to make us do in high school.
oTires and lift
oBumpers
oInterior
oExterior
oElectrical
oEngine
Etc...
This might help organize all the "what tire fits my lift" and "what lift do I need to clear X tire?"
It seems to be an ongoing gripe from older members and a common repost by new members. Why not try to fix it up do it all goes to one sub forum?

Just an idea.

Definatly a good concept...but i still bet most lazy newbs will just start a new thread instead of doing any searching...and if them threads get to many pages, most will gripe about not wanting to search through all the pages to find their answer and just start a new thread anyway.

Well I'm talking make them sub forums not just stickie threads in two blanket forums. So you know when you go into say "lift and tires" sub forum. You are gonna see all the "what is the biggest tire I can fit stock" treads.

If you have a question about stalling you go post or browse in the Engine forum. Or axle issues you search the Drivetrain forum, etc...

Yup almost all auto forums I visit are like that. I realize it adds forums for the mods to babysit, but with the help of the report button and the cooperation from the general users, having a nice little drawer to put each post in for easy cataloging can sure save them a ton of work down the road.

I honestly think there will aways be clutter with new questions because people are lazy and we get a lot that barely know how to use a PC.
