I was wondering what you guys think of the whole stance thing when it comes to modifying suspension and rims. You know, this look
I personally think that this look is really dumb because your ride would be more susceptible to getting damaged.

Its just as expensive to do properly as anything else...
Its never been my thing.... but if its done right I will go over to the owner & give him a thumbs up.... I think most do...or just not say anything at all.... On the internet its a different story. Everyone tells you what they REALLLY think... lol

The people who do this think scraping is cool. It's like a "what are you wimp? Tough it out" kinda viewpoint. I have a friend from middle school who went on to be one of these people, and every time he posts pics of his lowered Audi it's always paired with something like:

I would never do this to an American muscle car, or any other kind of car.

That's what you do to your car when your really friggin' stupid and you know it, but your afraid that the rest of the world is not aware of the extent of your stupidity.

People that do that to a car are members of a very exclusive club. The "More Money Than Brains Club".

IMHO it's ugly as hell, wears tires faster, and I don't even want to know how poorly cars handle like that.
