    That being said, dont bring on the subject of Donks because you'll witness me blow off steam like Mike the Bavarian only wishes he could.

    lol jk

    We all have different tastes, its all about the love of cool machines. Not what one person says is the "proper" way to do it. These guys may have a touch of metrosexual tendencies, but hey im not judging- its all good. If we were all the same, what fun would that be.

    And i still want to know if that G35 is legally driving on those wheels, because that looks dangerous.

    As far as I see it, Stanceworks/Hellaflush members are all enthusiasts. They find passion in drop stretch roll and poke on generally stock/oem looking cars. There is nothing wrong with that. Their passion isnt to race, plus they have modified suspension/tires that wont even support that. They might get in your purist skin and hit a nerve cuz its not your style, but whats the definition of being a car enthusiast? Im gonna steal a quote from stinkydriverx here in SD "Car Enthusiasm is not supposed to be a contest to see who's car is better. Just a respect for the other people who love cars too."

    Oh I must be combining different people's opinions, my bad. VIP isn't my style either, but I'm not going to wish them harm.

    I also don't see how running Mercedes Benz wheels on a Bimmer automatically makes it suck? I'm not honestly a fan of those wheels either, but it's certainly not because of the manufacturer.
    I said i had respect for the merc wheels. I just don't like them, go read it again.
    And I never said building a 400hp beast that only sees street use is cool either.
    I really could care less what rev thinks of me. I'm stating my opinion on these cars. I personally think that they are stupid, you might like them, that's you not me.
    and if you're driving a vip'd car then yes you deserve to be pushed of the road...that honestly just can't be safe to drive like that.

    Keep going, you sound cool.

    I'd like to agree with Hartge and josh. Rarely will you see those guys go on and on about how stupid non stanced cars is, or how building a 400hp beast that never sees the track is almost as poseur as a cosmetic built car. They are accepting and can a appreciate a well built machine regardless of style.

    More than half those cars look like they are going to fall apart on the high way.

    It's funny how a lot of people here are judging show cars as race cars. Then again a lot of people judge race cars as show cars...... it never ends!!!

    Now I personally like most of the cars, the people that drive them r alot more accepting of different styles than most of the people here.
    I will echo this. The guys on StanceWorks are the most accepting bunch of guys I've ever encountered on any forum. They don't even care if your car isn't "stanced" to their standards, they don't even really have any. It's nice to see a group of guys that are so accepting of more than just their own style.

    Ouch!! yea a MtechII e30 may not be ORIGINAL. But wait e30's r 20 yr old cars its all been done to them before. so pretty much nothing is "ORIGINAL" on them. As for RS's yea alot of people think they r the best looking wheel of all time. Personally I agree. But look around when u drive around ur home town how many cars do u see rocking RS's? not many. yes on the forums there are a lot of them. But so what they look great.
    I agree with u on alot of negative camber does look bad. As for the blue g35 i dont like it. but the white 350z, I love it and he is running 275's in the rear. it is also his DD.(at the same height pictured)

    now after going through ur older post u seem to have a problem with any car associated with STANCE. Stretched tires were around a long time before stanceworks.

    I have no problem with stretched tires..................On drift cars:p
    if the car's slow I honestly could give two fucks. but it just bothers me when people take cars built to perform and wreck them but making them undrivably low with rediculasly small tires and camber that makes the car look like drive on water mode in grand theft auto.
    when people are all like omg eurostretch! I don;t think they under that if they were aloud to run the right size tire, I think most of them would. and i never said stuff on e30's was original. everything has been done. and while rs's are one of the best looking wheels, that doesn't mean every fucking car needs them. Don't get me wrong I love mt2 and rs's, but I just don't care anymore. I don't understand why people go apeshit over this stuff.
    It's a stupid trend. And I just hate stance works mainly because the dudes on that site are bozos. Don't really care if I offend anyone or if you don't like me. car's that were built to go fast + stupid stance shit like this=gay. Like Mike b's car would be sick....If it had normal tires and wheels that weren't off a merc. I have respect for how he had them redrilled and filled and they came out perfect. I just don't like it. why would you put an s54 in a car just to run donuts for tires? doesn't make sense.
