holy camber batman
On my way to pick up my bellhousing I saw this:

The car's so out of control, he needs that camber to stay in control.
|
Hey...time to buy stock in tire companies that cater to drifters.
|
You mean you guys havent heard? That's the new way to get better traction..
seesh newbs |
That car must feel awesome when he gets into the ruts on the parkway from semi's, and on grated bridges.
|
|
it looks like one of the cars from the movie cars.....only sad

camber is used for low. this is my friends car. He is maxed out in camber on the rear. I love that look to be honest. I think that 240 that keith posted is dope. See hellaflush.com. Quote:

I feel bad for the wheel bearings

That much camber is pointless!! Real race cars don't even use that much camber.
|
That is what happens when you lower a car by heating the 3 (or more) middle spring coils with an acetylene torch. Freaking genius. I love seeing cars like that drive, they get this weird oscillation going when they hit any road unevenness.

You guys don't get it. More camber, as well as stretched tires, lets you lower the car more without rubbing the fender wells. It also gives a certain look that the car is broken. It's all for show:
http://hollispark.com/wordpress/wp-c...09/rusted5.jpg I went to a VW car show a week ago and it was awesome. We ran into this guy on the way home. His car was insane. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3341/...3d65354494.jpg I know its not for everyone, but i think it looks awesome. I love it. the scene is huge in Japan too: http://www.2dayblog.com/images/2010/april/viprimwss.jpg Ah well. |

hahah I don't mind it to a certain extent. I think it looks good on VW's and some clean Integras but there's a point where it's just too much.

It looks like tires worn out in 1000 miles to me. What is the point of driving that low? I can understand an air suspension where you would set it down when parked but otherwise I don't get it. What do you do in a car like that when you have to drive over speedbumps?

I have seen alot of 240's with it done but even then its in modesty....then i have seen some where its like...YOUR KIDDING, RIGHT?
because if someone throws a monster wing on...Some one gets the ideal to put a space ship wing on a kia...Y? i really dont know and most likely never will. Civic with coffee can tip...OK, 5" exhaust tip on a 2" exhaust...i can live with it.... but the civics with the 55g drum mufflers...WTF The GSR with a roll call sticker collection of parts not even on the car.... ok, like the look and are saving up for the goodies... BUT the GSR with every Cracker Joe sticker there was ever made....WHOA!!! you look like a piece of cross country lugage.... its just the same thing. Somepeople dont care about function....just concept and look... imagine what the world would be like! had this happened in other areas other then CARS... like your HOUSE. I can see it now, couple 3' wire fences turn into a couple of trenton state fences with in a block... |

Only good camber is when the fronts tuck in when you yank em. :) |

Stretching, cambered out, and tucking. schweet!!!!

if that's now a "style" its because people were initially too cheap to get it done right, and everyone just followed.. lowered cars look much better with the wheels completely tucked IMHO
|
i think that massive tip is weighing the rear down actually.
i guess when these guys go for a tire rotation, they actually flip the tire around on the rim? |
the thing i dont understand about this ''style'' is that people lower their cars to get better handling....but how does this help at all when it looks like its only riding on 40 percent of the tread :?:
