Default 'Stanced' cars...

I've been seeing more and more 'stanced' cars. You know the ones- completely slammed, stretched tires, so much camber that they're basically riding on the inside lettering of the tire. What's your take on these cars?

It's just another style of car. Real car people don't care what you drive.
If you like your car, I like your car. I work on all kinds of cars. I like all kinds
of cars.There was a huge car show at Tampa Stadium Sunday 8 September
/yesterday. Hundreds of cars. People in a good mood. People
getting along with each other.

Everyone has their own idea of what a car should look like. I am sincerely greatful
to God that we have the individual freedom to drive what we want instead of the
govt or someone else telling us what to do. Someone who hates you or your car
or what you do for a living as a young man for whatever reason, will probably hate
or be jealous of someone or something until they die as a bitter person.

My car is one of the most photographed cars at shows as well as on the street.
A lot of people are jealous of it's many innovations which they are unable to
create for their own car. Some of them don't have time to earn enough money to
modify their own car, but have enough time to criticise others in the car scene.

When smart people don't know or understand something, they educate themselves
and get smarter. When stupid people don't know or understand something, they
criticise, ridicule, hate and they stay stupid. You will see examples of this when
you read some past threads....which a lot of people do....before looking for a site
with people in a good mood like themselves.

Plenty of cars are shown, but not driven the same way they are displayed.
Smart people know that already. Are anyone reading this willing to tell us about
the car which you drive and have pride in?

i like the lowered look,but not to the point where it destroys driveability and wears out tires.

its just the natural evolution of hard parking. It isn't about performance. We all know the kids that build beauty queen cars that don't actually do anything. They show up. park them hard. and thats it. Just like everything, the more extreme the better. So it becomes a hard park competition, who can get lower and have the most stupid offset and camber and all that dumb stuff. the more extreme the harder the park.

When's the last time you took your car to the track? As far as I'm concerned, until any vehicle you own touches the track, you're no better than any other "hard" parker.

One....A few months ago. Saving my pennies for a rebuild to get back out there.
Two. It's a mindset. Don't even have to see their car to identify a hard parker.

There is a difference in stance and what you described. That hella camber BS it gay as fuck. Proper fitment with good camber is what I called STANCE.
