I didn't mean for it to sound like I was hating on anybody. I agree that it's their ride and they can do what they want. I think it would look interesting on a show car, but not something I'd want in a streetable car.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out that the hellaflush crowd isn't impressed by my Plain Jane ride.

Yeah, its just two different taste in cars, me personally, I actually like it. A car thats slammed on the ground, thats pretty cool. Just my 2 cents.

the problem is that all this ridiculous amounts of camber actually makes the car a lot more unstable and dangerous to drive. There's a difference between being slammed and having 60 degrees of negative camber with stretched tires.

who cares? why does it bother YOU so much, its their car, they can do whatever they want to it, Im pretty sure they realize that its fvcking up their ride, but maybe, just maybe they're doing it because they want to..

I care!

When their **** starts breaking and coming off, it will be my car or others that pay the price from driving behind them or around them. They are a moving road hazard!

Because if they get into an accident on the road they don't just put themselves in danger, they put everyone else on the road in danger. Car enthusiats in general have a tendency to drive a little fast, which means an accident is more likely and potentially more catastrophic. I don't care what they do with their care, I'm just saying I think it's stupid.

Motorcyclists and tourists (that dont know where the hell they're going) are little more dangerous than a guy in a car dropped.. And I can assure you they're probably not driving like idiots with the roads as bad as they are.
