My inspiration for my Z......low/mean/loud/aggressive
I think the "hellaflush" aggressive scene has become hugely trendy now and its getting to the point where flush is now just a "trendy visual style" instead of how it started which is....baller wheels on gangster cars..with attitude..
its to the point now where there is no character with the cars..just throw stances/volk/work/ssr/spacers and call it a day...hence the reason why i went with the older work vs-mx on my car..and cuz i love old skool.
So ima bring it back and post up matt powers s14 cause to me it really defines the "aggressive" part of the "flush" style....
As z owners..i think we gotta step up our game...i dont think we are hitting the "aggressive" note so much as alota peeps are busy with just getting low/getting the wheels to touch the fender'ish..

think ima go with 11 -5 instead though
drifting eats through tires on car's with a good bit of camber, so i dont want to run as much camber as some of the guys on here so i think -5 will fit fine for me

I have cheap wheels that requires spacers because they dont do custom sizes. My d1ck still gets hard everytime i walk outside and sit in my car. I understand what your saying but at the same time....im not one to buy into the namebrand hype. I think thats a whole nother issue right there.

My rears are 11, and im running spacers.
I agree with you to an extent as well. I do believe it has become some sort of "trend" and that everyone is trying to hop on the trend without knowing the history or story behind it. I think its the same for people that style their cars in drift/timeattack/track etc styles that don't really do anything. THe style did not just come from "baller wheels on gansta cars with attitude" Being flush has been around for a loooonggg time, and it also came in different forms such as in vip cars, drift cars, track cars, bozuko, shakotan cars, and the Euro guys with the vdubs have been doing it for yearrrs.
For me personally, I looooovvvveee low cars and how low cars look compared to a car thats stock height. Being flush is a given because it just doesn't look right when its not good fitment. That is why it is what it is.
I do think the Z's are doing big things with different users on here and so to "US" it might see boring and say to ourself "its been done" but leave it to those people to take it to a new level of agressiveness and you will see a new light.
