I guess everyone on this board is stupid. And I won't take your comment as an insult since I didn't do it to my own car. I just like the look of it and have driven in a car like it and know what its like
additional stress on a tires sidewall at anything over 10-15mph is very unsafe. thats why off roaders and drag racers air down at the trails/track and air up before they go. i understand your point to looking good but driving at any speed with half the tire off of the ground and all of the cars weight on the inner sidewall is asking for trouble.
