What's your opinion on stance?

[razorcobra]

Probably one of the bigger questions I have is: What do you think of stance on SUV's? I always thought a Range Rover or an e53 with a lowered stance would look cool and have less of a rollover risk. I also would feel safer in one too. Driving my dad's CRV was nerve racking. :0

I am definitely a stance guy in my own opinion. My car is actually pretty low, but its not stupid low. I would go lower if I could. I know a lot of people claim its hipster and stupid, but I cant help but still love the way it looks. I guess I can slide for it because I drive a cabrio, which wouldnt be the ideal car for tracking anyway. I've always seen it as a cruising car, which compliments the stanced part.

I also enjoy being apart of this scene is because of the people. I've met plenty of intelligent and genuine people who I can confidently call my friends. I will agree that there are also plenty of tards and weirdos who really arent enthusiasts at all, but people like that are found in almost every scene.

I dont think stance is a fad or a phase. I think it will always remain in some way, shape, or form.

I like a car that is lowered, has a bit of stance to it, but still performs well. Take F34R's car for instance.

FE4R has IMO one of the best stances. It's perfect.

This about sums it up for me. I like the look of a nicely lowered car, perfect flush wheel fitment, no fender gap, nice meaty tires. When it gets to the point of becoming an issue to drive your car on normal roads, or impossible to go over speed bumps, or bragging about how many oil pans you broke is where it starts to get a bit silly to me. Not knocking it, but I don't get it. I like to drive my car, not stare at them parked. I do find it irritating that almost everyone I run into who is "into cars" these days tells me I need to slam my car, bag it yada yada.

Dude.....you need to slam your car.

My problem with the "stance" scene are the people. IMO, a very large majority are not true car enthusiasts. I can't seem to relate or have a good conversation regarding cars or much of anything at all. Sure, I've got a solid group of friends that drive their s14's and Japanese cars low as shit, but it's a style.

But hey, to each their own.

My stance is that a car should be set up for the owner's desired level of performance. If theirs is "no performance," that's fine with me.

But meaty tires all the way for me. I'm not fond of lowriders bouncing but I can accept the level of work they have put into it. Cars are cars after all.

[evandael]

IDGAF if it's done right.

[csermonet47]

Done right it looks great, but it isn't done right that often. I have had my car fitted and it drove and handled fine. Never busted a pan or anything. I think it looked great. Not stupid low but low enough to look good.

With that said, I have since raised it up and got bigger tires and 15s and it rides way better and is more fun to drive, but it doesn't have the appeal it had before. All preference really.

I think cars that are lowered for performance are wonderful to drive and look great.

I also really enjoy show cars that have been build built up to be a piece of art, "stanced" cars included.

Douches and sheep will always be around.

Its a good way to ruin the handling

I have come up with this opinion via observing people I've known a long time (mostly middle and high school). And by observing, I mean Facebook or instagram, ect. I feel they "got into the game" because it was a fad.

[IronFreak]

Stanced, as in stretched butthole tires and a busted oil pan?

I like a low car with squared up, huge meaty tires. No waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles shit here.

I think it is pretty apparent what the general consensus on "stance" is around here.

To chip in my two cents, it is as useless and silly as any ricer boy's AutoZone modified primered Civic.
