    To all the internet famouse car guys

    O i know what you mean. Go on bimmerforums mention stance and you may just get killed over the internet which is stupid I just live the to each his own motto. BUT there is one thing I absolutely hate and will probably call you out on and say your a f'ing idiot and that is putting -18 degrees of camber on your car like wtf is the point of that really? I can keep my mouth shut to a stupid low car but add dumb camber and idk haha.

      Agreed. And honestly, I think there's a point where it's so low it just looks silly, too.

      I'm okay with cars on bags though, since you can at least raise it up when you need to drive it.

Hell i avoid potholes and manhole covers in my stock 2013 silverado, its not good for your vehicle hitting that shit at any height
      You cannot drive the roads I regularly drive on with an inch of ground clearance. Maybe the roads are better in your part of NJ, but where I am (outside Philly) you cannot drive with an inch of clearance. I guarantee you'll bottom out.

        except when they bag a classic car like a m3:hitler:

            idk about you but i wouldnt exactly consider a car that came stock with 170hp "built for performance" sure with aftermarket parts it can be, but that can be said for any car..

              you already said youve never driven a low car, ive had bagged and very low vehicles since i was 17, im 31 now.. trust me when i say i GUARANTEE i can probably handle shitty roads a LOT better then you with your almost stock height car

              my e30 has been bagged for almost a year and i regularly drive VERY low and theres hardly even scrapes on my skidplate, adjustable dampning does wonders for very low cars, ive been building one off suspensions from scratch for 11 years im not just some jerkoff who buys ebay springs and puts them on cars

                There are performance bags that work close to as well as a coilover system, so I'm sort of alright with that. If the car was ratshit to begin with.

                  people dont realize that an airbag is an adjustable spring, a properly setup airride setup with handle just as good if not better then a coilover setup because its essentially the exact same thing

                    When you say those words, does it mean you took it to a shop to put everything you wanted and could afford on it?

                    Or does it mean that you busted your knuckles, researched nights on in and learned how do it right, did it and, now have a bad as car that brings you efame?

                    Get over it and drive your cars.

                        I think most of us are not upset that "stancetards" have different taste in modifying their cars, we are upset that they usually (not always) modify the cars so poorly (see cut springs and cheap coils) run them super low, and drive like assholes, all while ignoring the fact that their car is rusting apart on the highway in front of you. Or that it needs new wheel bearings, bushings, etc.

                        This excessive modification at the expense of making sure your vehicle is maintained is exactly why other countries, like Germany, have an TUV system where your car has to be inspected every 1-2 years to make sure its safe to drive on the countries highway system.

                        I dont care if you like blue wheels, sticker bombed fenders, or whatever, just dont do it at the expense of your vehicles maintenance, or next thing you know your $3k wheel will fall off and youll spin out into someones new M3 and be fucked for life cause you didnt replace your wheel bearings/suspension/whatever.

                        The problem isnt taste, its common sense.

                            Lowering to some degree is a performance improvement. If you want to slam your car and stretch your tires, I don't mind. I'll even look at it. I'll respect the work that was involved. In the end though, it's a fashion statement (like wearing your flat brim hat backwards or your pants at the bottom of your ass). When you seek attention, you'll get it, don't cry if it's not all positive.



                            Between friends differences in taste or opinion are irritating in direct proportion to their triviality.

                              And that's just an assumption that usually (not always) owners of low cars neglect maintenance?
