I wouldn't call it fail. I think it LOOKS good. I just don't know how someone can drive it that low, unless it's bagged. I couldn't even leave the driveway or get through the parking garage at work that low. Those are two pretty essential functions of my day lol

Nobody can argue that it's not or isn't as functional. Regardless, this debate is getting old. People have different tastes, as your clothing, your taste in food, your significant other, etc are all different. If you can't accept the reality that people have differences in all aspects of life, then that is fail, imo.


Function > Form, though.






BTW, there was a fire in my neighborhood. One of the houses around the corner caught on fire and we had like 6-8 fire trucks, lots of emergency vehicles, media, etc swarm the place. I have pics but I don't think they're very good due to all the smoke. My hair smells like a burning house.

Phiooz,

I posted with a lighthearted manner just kinda goofing.

But on a serious note... You sir are not just fail, you are epic fail. You broke your car in an effort to acheive a look.

Quang,

You can defend him all you want, but he still broke his car. I've said many times that I like that style, but it just isn't functional. When you drive a show car on the street you will have problems.

I think it looks damn good but obviously it would be a b!tch to drive around. That being said though, it's his car and if that's what he likes, then who are we to judge him for it. If you don't like it then just don't do it to your car. I know I wouldn't. I am a little iffy on that much camber though. I do agree with function > form though. Unless you have the money for both lol Phiooz I say do what YOU want to do with YOUR car. That's part of what makes it your car and nobody elses. You should go to auto x though lol

Peter, are you keeping a list of things you broke trying to be "stanced?" That cannot be cheap at all.

I think the tire companies should design tires just for these hellaflush/fatlace/stance people, where one side of the tire is taller than the other side. That way, they can try to have some contact patch. I think they'd make pretty good money from all those into the fad (yes, fad).
