I'll post some pics in the next couple days. The 20x10.5's would be sick with a 235/30 and 5-8mm spacers

whooooaa

235/30 on a 10.5? I'd need like 30mm spacers to make the tires sit close enough to the fenders for me lol

Do you mean 265/30? or are do you really mean that crazy aggressiveness?

it was more of random honking

and then

Me: Ok, someone needs to get out
Passengers: Huh? Why?
Me: I'm stuck
Passengers: On what?
Me: The road
Passengers: No you aren't

at this point i actually tried driving off. followed by nothing but a little higher rpm action.

Passengers: WTF!?!?!?
Me: Lights green gtfo!
Passengers: No (laughing)

As i give it more gas my diff bounces off a high spot in the road.
Me&Passengers: OOOOOOOOOOHH

I was saying that for the front. But I keep forgetting that I'm only running -1.5 camber up front. You would need a 20mm spacer up front for it to be aggressive.

The rear, I'd do a 255 with a 10-15 depending in your camber

OK guys...my flame suit is on...and I'll start by saying that I've been a member of this forum for a very long time, but I'm sorry...I just don't get this fad.

Some of these cars look very good, and I'm all about having the most aggressive stance possible for my car, but some of these cars are ridiculous!

What is the point of reducing the overall contact patch of the tire on the road, inducing excessive negative camber, negative toe-in, increasing understeer, increase wheel bearing and other suspension wear, tire feathering, and over-inflating tires to stretch onto a rim that was never designed to accommodate such a narrow width tire?

Is it just so you can say "I did it"? Some of these cars where the rims are sticking beyond the fenders and pushing over -3 degrees camber just looks stupid to me. Reminds me of when I used to see civics with those tiny wheels that had ridiculous offsets.

I'm sorry I just don't get it

^^ LOL !! well its about time you came in here and stated an opinion like that. Maybe the guys that want stance think having a 2 finger gap on their cars is stupid . but i guarantee you there are more perfect stanced guys on this whole site and some WILD stance rides on here then anyone else on these forums. IMO i think stance is sick !! its all about how far and extreme you can go with your car. All i have is intake on my car and exhaust .. im all about looks and stance.

i know its your opiuonion about stance and thats fine but i can promise you 80% of sedan owners that come on this site that sees marcus's,chris,chris,vivek and many more cars like theirs will say "damn i love the way those cars look, i want to do something similar to their set up .. not may sedans in here have a +45 off set on their cars .. everyone is starting to put like +30 or less now which is the wrong offsets to put on a sedan

I hear what you guys are saying, and I'm not trolling by any means. I just wanted to hear some of the reasons people do it. I think Marcus' car looks sick, as well as several others in this thread, so I'm not saying that I don't like a car with an aggressive stance.

I just don't get the overly excessive ones, where the wheels have intense amounts of negative camber and the tires are practically rolling on their sides.

Like you said, it's just my opinion.

I guess I'm more interested in a good compromise of looks and performance, and going to these extremes defeats the performance.
