I may be the minority here, but this looks flat out stupid. I don't understand the whole stretch and poke thing, especially if it means you need to drive slower than the rest of traffic to get around. I guess for some folks its all about form over function though.

 

^ This is gonna be fun...

 

I expect to get roasted by the guys here, but I will stand by what I said. Do what you want to your car, but once it starts to affect other people folks on the road by slowing the flow of traffic, I am instantly against it.

 

^ nah i agree with ya, it looks bad

 

Taste is entirely subjective, and every generation has their own 'thing'.

Remember jacked up back ends so you could fit 2 foot wide tires on the back of your friend's 72 'cuda? Likely affected handling on that car in a similar fashion as extreme camber probably does on these...

 

I think it looks ghastly as well... but at the same time like so many other unique looks it does achieve the look it is striving for. I don't care for it- but the guy who is reaching for the limits of the "hella flush" I think he got it.

Functional? Niet.

Would I do it? Neine

Do I get it? So so.

 

I don't plan on being that stretched, thats too over the top for me. Still deciding on tire size and final offsets but it should be nice and aggressive when I'm done.

Probably a 255/35?? Maybe a 245/35 up front?

 

Something along the lines of this fitment with the 10.5. I love this thing!

 

Well, at least there are two of us.

 

streetable u say EH? why don't I ever see ur car at work? Hmmmm

always see u driving that civic around

As for OP do it, those are nice (looks wise) wheels, I was actually going to buy those this summer but couldn't justify the price for casted wheels...

 

Wellllll i dont know about that, some of u guys can keep ragging about us taking our sweet a$$ time getting up a entrance or speed bump or bypassing a pothole or whatever,

but from what i see, yeah sure we take the extra few seconds over a speed bump but anyone with a stock car is going to slow down as well, there not going to go flying over at there regular speed, people slow down to get into entrances, people at stock height try avoiding, slowing down to avoid pot holes as well. In common sense who really wants to go full speed and hit a pot hole.

Most the time for me if im entering a mall or something, there person infront of me will take more time getting into the parking lot or over a speed bump then me. Im not that low but i still got functionality so its hard for me to take in the concept of some of you saying form over function.

I dont mean to point you out directly my friend, Im saying in general ,

all you guys need to stop ragging on guys who are slammed, please and thank you


Btw,

This is my Form AND Functionality :







Works for me

 

Sexy....

 

lol as I said before, I drive the **** out of my car. I definitely have never held up traffic in my life.

 

I don't know how you guys manage to do it. I live downtown Toronto, and my car would be finished with the streets I drive, if it were that low.

 

^ I hear ya, but ive been downtown numerous times with the car , metro convention center for importfest, to a photoshot, to just cruising, etc. etc. ive brought the car downtown about 5 or 6 times this summer.
