Only clubs12 would have interest in a thread as lame as this, really. No one in question is building a race car, in fact, nearly everyone here has a car that
A. doesn't run
or
B. doesn't do shit
So honestly, the majority of you guys have absolutely no business in hating. Rather, your uneducated and unvalidated comments and opinions mean nothing to anyone but yourselves.
edit: I agree with Dan, I mean to say something similar but with the whole asshole angle.
Also, Dan, cool notch. Are those AP1 s2000 wheels? lol
Someone here got their panties in a bunch...must be a hellafail fanboi.
I run my car on dirt/gravel trails with a couple other guys here locally, so I don't see how your A and B theory really fits....
And also, this thread isn't a club-s12 conversation only, obviously SOMEONE else wrote an entire 4 page article about why it's retarded, and how you can build your car to be worth a damn instead...on a completely separate website.
I will say it looks ugly to me due to the usual camber that goes along with it. If they did it, minus camber, i'd agree with you SC that it looks alright on certain cars, but i still would rather my tire not be hidden in the fender personally on any car i'll own.
and also, /thread on SC's last lines
besides...the argument the Japanese do it doesn't really makes sense for 2 reasons
1) camber and tire stretching was originally a european thing...
2) japan has used panty vending machines...just because they do it doesn't mean it should be done
