I'd rather drive this than the car posted in the OP.

I can't even see the original post since I'm at work, but judging by the comments, I know exactly what I would be seeing.

Everyone has their flavor of modding, but when you're modding to a point where it becomes dangerous for other drivers, and potentially screwing up your wheel bearings and axles at an accelerated rate, no. Just no.

Why is it that nothing can bring out the worst in people like a stance debate. Both sides seem to go over the top for no apparent reason.

As someone who grew up when the stance era was really starting to hit(18 now), I dont hate it. I couldn't do it myself because I prefer a more trackable build, but it's all cool nonetheless.

Lastly, let's be real, the tire stretch and suspension geometry precision required to make fitments work is truly engineering.

Ya. My question was actually more rhetorical since I really do understand why.
I guess my actual question is why somebody would create a thread knowing full well where it would head? Ahhhh shit that is rhetorical as well.

Do really like those tails though.

The "tow strap" is actually a grab ring from a Japanese train or subway. People in Japan would steal them from trains and hang them from their cars as a way of sticking it to the man. Having the plastic ring drag on the ground and wearing away shows onlookers how moar lowz brah your car is.
