you guys know that
camber + offset ≠ fitment
right?
nearly everything i've seen in the last 4 pages looks tacky as hell. bunch of tasteless ricers with too much money to spend on nice wheels. you know you're doing it wrong when stance nation features is the only thing you have to live for.

I couldnt agree with you more. Been following this scene for years and its just starting to get tacky, especially with the 350z guys. You hit the nail on the head with the "too much money to spend on nice wheels" comment.
It used to just be nice wheels fitted on a car with a bit of neg camber n stock rolled fenders now everyone is trying to 1-up the other. Im sorry but when you have to destroy your fenders to the point of reshape and paint, and run 6+ degrees neg camber, its gone too far

I disagree with all of you.... These guys are taking it to the next level.... And please don't tell me anything about functional :/ bc Hella flush and functional is REALLY hard to achieve... And if your talking about drifting... Well I bet you these guys can go sideways on these wheels also... This I'd mainly to make a statement and look good,
It's like ppl who aim for 600rwhp Z as a DD .... What's the point? The point is that its bada$$ and DIFFERENT

basshead^^no dude, I desagree with you. Hella Flush functional is not far to achieve at all and no most of these crazy fitment dudes are toooo puzzy to drift their cars, let alone with expensive wheels. I don't mean to be an ***, just my .02¢. If your set up goes passed 18/19x13-negatives you r better off getting your fenders properly done our over fenders...

I have a novel idea guys. If you don't like the scene, don't click on the thread. This is the aggressive/stretched thread not the "is aggressive/stretched cool" thread. Why would you take the time to look at these guys cars only to blast on them? Just don't look at it if you don't like it.
Do I like all of the cars? No. Would I rock most of these set-ups? No. But I do appreciate the work some of these guys put in and the ***** they have to push the envelope.
If you are only going to come in here to bish

Member above is right, if you don't like it move on..... Bit appreciate the work
@lito- there's a diff. In them being ABLE TOO drift and them WANTING to drift.... It just gets annoying when someone throws the "functional" bomb on the mix :/ ... If functionality was what everyone wanted then you wouldn't even stretch (depending on what you want).... I hear functional enough in the fat tire thread and everyone bagging ppls cars bc there not "functional" enough.... When in reality ppl are just doing it for the look, right? Most ppl in this form will never drift or try to learn.... OR don't fo it enpugh to where you need a functional drift car... Right? Idk ... I thought everyone here encouraged ppl to gp outside the box and push the limit.... The opposite is what drove me away from my fat tire setup.... That's why my next setup will be poke and stretch... The style grew on me and the crowd is always encouraging untill I saw the post above 
Too each his own I guess, but let's get back on topic bc amoney those wheels remend me of some model Asanti came out with but these have a little twist
lol. They look great

^^ Agreed. When I saw some of those fitments the first thing that came to mind was...
Don't get me wrong, I love super aggressive, but I just don't see how you can find that much camber aesthetically pleasing, or even remotely functional. Seems like it would kill the joy of driving the car.
To each his own in the end, but I think my affinity for flush fitment ended when poke/ mega camber started.
