No, I knocked on you because you cut up your bumper and turned it into a saggy piece of s***. I joked on your wheels because you ran stretched tires on them.

I have no front bumper on my car due to the s***ty drivers in my area. I do not enjoy having to roll around with out it.

I have mustang wheels because I paid 200 dollars for them, And needed a 17x9 to put power to the ground.

In other words, You made tasteless modifications (IMO) to your car for no reason.

I bought cheap blah wheels to stop spinning at 90mph and got hit by a tourist.

loll tasteless mods include a 2871r setup that spun all day with STICKY tires on those wheels.

and my tires were barely stretch BRAH.

and i can use that excuse of not having a bumper on my car too.. but i don't cuz i'm not gay and ppl on here don't need to know why i don't have a bumper on nor do i need to hear you crying about why your bumper isn't on.

255/40 on a 10.5 isn't even stretched really.especially a rt615 which runs bigger then most tires out there..



and it was a WIP @ the time.and if i said that i bet you'd say different things.but u figured it was a finished product lmao.

yep sorry yours still doesnt look as good, maybe if you got rid of the monster truck status... not trying to start a war, just saying you need to be lower.. your tires just look plain. i have 245's in the back of mine but still doesnt look like FusionR300zx's. JEALOUS

I have always wondered why so many folks always preach about being lower. Some people don't want to be dragging their car on the ground and struggling to get over speed bumps. After fiber glass repairs and rebreaks, and living with my driveway, there is no way I would drop one of mine like that.

i know what your saying. there is places here that you could not take a low car (my driveway) lol my car isnt that low but someday it will be. but i wont have fiberglass to break. im all about oem. and scratches on the bottom where nobody sees isnt a big deal to me. plus they look way nice when they are slammed. for instance....

What? I didn't say I have -5 camber. I said I didn't need that much to fit my wheels/tires. I have maybe -2.5 out back. All that "sticky" tire you have doesn't mean jack if you have a crappy contact patch. Also, How are your wheels better? You have knock off cobra wheels, At least mine are real.

Oh, And you if think those falken tires are sticky.... Boy do you have a lot to learn.

My car is dropped 2 inches. I WILL NOT lower it anymore to look like megga tyte drifters. I actually track my car and enjoy having a suspension that works.

Slamming your car turns it into a useless pile of s***. Take a look into suspension geometry, Then you will understand why.

They are 17x9 +25 Bee-R B5 wheels. He ran a 215 on them. To bad that car ate a curb and cracked the front wheels. Hes got a coupe hes working on now though. RIP PUR PUR.
