This is a PUBLIC forum for people to share ideas, opinions, tips and information. Not a circle jerk where we make everyone feel better by singing kumbaya and making smores (though I am down for some smores if anyone wants to organize an 86 camping trip )

Every person is entitled to make their car how THEY like it... once it is shared with the world via the internet, we are all entitled to have an opinion of it, good or bad, and we are all entitled to share that opinion on this public forum.

If you don't like it, don't read it. Or if you enjoy open debate, tell me why you don't agree with my opinion by expressing your own... But bashing someone for explaining why they don't like a certain mod, trend, style, etc. is hypocritical and is just an attempt to suppress free-thinking and open, constructive discussion.
Well, most people in this thread have simply stated "it looks stupid". Then when they give reasons, the wrong terminology is used. I'm all for an open debate, but with the way opinions have been expressed, some people need to get off their high horses.

For example, @636 car. I've said I love his car, but for me he's running a bit too much camber. That's a lot different than just saying "your car is dumb because camber". But, his car stands out quite a bit and I really, really like that about it.

Like it or not, "stance" is here to stay. And I have that in quotations because there could be infinite examples of stance. Stance, to me, is simply how a car sits. "Hellaflush" cars have stance, jacked up trucks have stance. The only thing I will hate on in the car community is someone doing something to their car which is definitely going to end up being unsafe for other motorists. Excessive tire stretch, cut springs, running bald tires, that kind of shit.

Personally, I like a wide range of car types. Lowriders, muscle cars, track beasts, trucks (all kinds for all applications). And I think that closing yourself off to one narrow view of cars is going to make you miss out on a lot of cool stuff that you may never have seen before.

And let's be honest here, negative camber WILL help with handling (not in extreme cases, such as oni) and a 0* camber angle will only really help in a straight line, which, time and time again on this site its been stated. "This car is not meant for a straight line"
