Saw this tonight on a friend's girlfriend's Instagram. It's something he says all the time, and I think she's tired of having him build it instead of spending time with her.

Seen this sweet ride on my way home from work this morning. It looked like the worst and most uncomfortable ride ever :no:

That must be a "thing" around here. There was a silver Audi behind it with a similar setup. I seen some other tuners Thursday as well on I-81.

I don't see how that could be good for the wheels, tires, and suspension. Unless there are setups specific for that look :undecided:

It's called "stance". It's the new thing. Been around for a few years. Some take it overboard, because you lose any benefits the squat gave you by overdoing it.

Tuners at cars&coffee have them. Audis, mazda's, VW, nissan's. Even a Benz :crazy:

Interesting. Maybe that is why I have seen it so often this year.

I wish I would have took a video, but the driver and passenger looked like bobble head dolls driving down I-81 with a tight suspension. I-81 is smooth too, I could not imagine the ride on $hitty roads.

Google Images for "stance nation." The same term also makes the rounds in auto circles of the Internet as a general term for stupidity and youthful brashness. Can't say I've seen any images of them driving like that, just sitting there, I was under the assumption that it's done through some sort of airbag or hydraulic system rather than a permanent modification, as obviously you'll eat tires and anything more than 10% gas pedal pressing or 1/8 turn of the steering wheel will find the tires losing grip of the road.

I've seen pile-o-shit Hondas with what looks like -15° of camber doing 70mph on the highway smfh
 
Around Georgia a few years ago you would see 240's all over the place like that, with little stuffed dogs hanging from the back bumper. Then the ls swaps took over and they all went to drifting. It is not good for the tires and it is actually pretty dangerous to drive like that. I have never seen any like that with bags either, usually coil overs.......
 
In the McDonough area Ive seen a frontier pickup so low that they had to remove the bed and the gas tank was rachet strapped in place of the bed. That POS could barely turn corners and shook really bad everytime he hit a bump.
 
I think I still have my Iowa tags around here somewhere. Never sent them back in, oh well. 212 SMT. I remember the "pre-farm" tags with white-on-blue, the family car growing up was TUB 088. It was a Taurus, so TUB described it fairly well.

My set has been on the first 3 vehicles I've ever bought with my own money (including the TB). My first car ever was a Honda, mom bought it off my aunt for just 200 whole dollars lol. Got a year of use out of it so that was 200 well spent I think, but I can't remember the tag number it had.

There was a honda near me a while back that was "stanced" out like that, was so low to the ground that he scraped his (ugly) bumper making a turn through an intersection.

My route back from work was over a set of railroad tracks. Rather rough ones too. As I crossed over them, I saw Mr. Honda Dude coming the other way. Thought to myself how that car may not make it across, as kind of a joke to myself.

.... I never saw that car again after that :ugh:

On my last trip to Miami I was passed by about 10 in a row doing 70-75. Must have been on the way to a meet or something. Maybe a circus?

No idea what it was for. Googled before I posted. Guess it's for Nike.

Seriously? Hahaha. Parts stores should make their employees take a competency test to see if they have any clue about cars.

I bet the guy was competent, but I bet that it separated the car parts out in the book / software, etc He was probably so used to just clicking the 96 / FORD / Explorer / XLT / 4WD and then have it give him the info. But yeah, if he thought for just a second about it, they've all got the same windshield.
 
One of my favorites. It might be old, but the sentiment is still there.
