| im, guessing im going to be allone in this... but i cant stand pepole that wreck there cars performance by giving it an "agressive stance" ... whats the point? can some one please try and explain it to me.
while on stance (ish) ... STRECH TIRES! FUCK OFF ! you dont wear size 3 shoes to look cool and fit in. if you want wider wheels get wide arches (or the right offset) and the right size tires...

| idont understand why anyone would want to use strech tires its like saying "thisis how much grip you could have had"
similar with air ride why spend so much on something that will make the handeling worse (than money spent on some decent shocks) the car weigh more just so you can go up and down ? its a bit childish lol | |

Tbh, i think air is the way forward!! ye, but you get electronic ones that charge the fluid to stiffen them TTs have them aparently - no need for a compressor clearly why so many manufacturers offer them as standard | |

| imo, generally people that have airride are more about "the look" they dont feel the need to race and therefore have a great handling car, e.g my beetle has airride on the front to get over speedbumps etc, its never going to be a good handling car, its a bug, so theres no point in getting great shocks is there? and stretched tyres will always be debatable...i like a bit of stretch on the right car tbh, but that toyota in this thread takes the piss | |

STRECH TIRES! FUCK OFF ! you dont wear size 3 shoes to look cool and fit in. if you want wider wheels get wide arches (or the right offset) and the right size tires... everyone has tastes, stretch originally came from the lowrider scene over 50 years ago. so they could fit wide wheels and still get the car on the floor. |
