Looks like crap with the wheels all cocked like that

I was hoping I wasn't the only one who thought this Every time I see a car like that I think the suspension is broken. If wheels were designed to operate at strange angles like that, they would be cone shaped...


But what the hell do I know? I drive a 4WD planet killing SUV in a state where you need more than 1" of ground clearance to navigate the snow in the winter and the potholes the rest of the time

But in order to have a hellaflush stance and run the required excessively wide wheels with tires that are stretched just to fit onto the wheels, the car has to have an excessive amount of negative camber. If you stand behind one of these cars don't be surprised to see the rear tires looking like "/ \". The rear tires are probably bald on the inside and the outside still looks brand new, and there's probably only an inch of contact patch with the ground. A hellaflush stance car can't even pull into a driveway without bottoming out and ripping the bumper off or cracking the vehicles oil pan. Some stanced cars are so extreme that you can't even turn the vehicles steering wheel fully in either direction without the tires rubbing.

"Eric, look at that stanced car, it looks so damn retarded. I don't understand why these kids do it, they are killing the performance and asking to get pulled over. Shit, if they get pulled over, they are gonna get deported!"

"With all that money he spent stancing his car, he could have actually made it handle well and be pretty damn quick. Instead he can't even go over a speedbump without using 2x4s."

It looks retarded with the camber all fucked up like that. I like the idea of a low rider trailer for the bike, but again the camber issue ruins it.

Found myself more interested in what camera/lens setup was used to take the pics

Ill post up some pics of my "slammed" trailer for you guys sometime, I built it cos I got sick of smashing up the belly pan on my bike on the top of the ramp everytime I loaded up.
I run correct size tyres, suspension, and no camber though

I'm willing to bet 9 out 10 people dont even know the purpose of having negative camber.
