Maybe I got carried away with the whole "majority" here, but cars with insane excessive camber would never had existed had it not been for the stance-"scene" emrging as it has. That was my main point, and has been my main point from my first post in this thread

"Stance" in general itself has always been there; grabbing some coilovers, custom lips/spacers to make the wheel flush with the rolled (not pounded or pulled) fender/wheel wells, some moderate stretch, but not enough to wear the car struggles to put down power, some moderate warranted camber, not adding-camber-because-I-want-to-fit-wheels-that-aren't-supposed-to-fit-for-the-sake-of-fitting-oversized-wheels. Its only when posuers started pushing these limits and making a "scene" emerge from it where you have people doing crazier, more insane, ridiculous things to fit insane impracticable wheels on their car for the sake of "low", rather than "car".

I wouldn't necessarily classify them as traditional car enthusiasts. "Low" enthusiasts? Maybe, thats something I can live more with, but car enthusiasts.. No way

This is exactly the problem. You base your hate on the "stance" community on some stupid stereotype that only a few people actually play into.

Also, someone correct me if I'm wrong, "stance" is derived from people complying with strict English laws regarding vehicles. Stretch and camber were employed to fit the widest wheels possible while still complying with laws stating that tire tread couldn't emerge past the fenders.

Maybe that stereotype, but others still remain; I only had to browse S|W forums for a few minutes and I counted more than ample threads that list the first mod as:

"Gonna go lower guise BRB

In my opinion, it comes down to this.

I am not obligated to like something just because it is car related, or someone else is enthusiastic about it.

They are not obligated to consider my opinion at all.

I don't give a shit what anyone else does. If I think it's dumb, I won't do it. All I ask is that they extend me the same courtesy of not giving a shit about what I do or think.

I don't have anything against a clean lowered car, but there's also retarded shit to be found in those threads, too. It goes back to my post of how I think stretching the fenders ruins a car. I don't understand how somebody could bring themselves to compromise such a clean car, but I guess that's what happens when you're infected with the Stanceworks mentality.

http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=48949
The rear arches are so stretched and shitty looking that it's completely distracting. I don't see how those wheels and slammed stance make up for it.
