How to stance car:

1. Buy ~$1,000 coilovers
2. Go max low, then remove collars to go even lower; then go airbags cause it's still not low enough
3. Buy wheels that don't fit
4. Buy tires that don't fit, in an effort to help fit the wheels that don't fit
5. Align and buy additional control arms as needed
6. Create an ig page
7. Post all your stance pics on your ig to get mad followers
8. Use as many hashtags as possible in all your pics
9. Sell car 1 year later because everybody else is ruining the car scene
10. Profit

Whatever else you choose, bag it so it's useable. Best of both worlds.

You've got to pay to play. There's a reason BC coilovers are that cheap, they're garbage.

Or you can get lucky, measure a little, and just be like me and have air suspension with everything else stock lol.
But no seriously, if you want the look like Nabeel (red frs), you need to do a ton of research and be willing to throw out thousands for suspension components. FYI on air suspension, unless you do a lot of modification, you cant run a very wide wheel up front. But it really all depends on what you want. My advice, research until your head hurts, then research more. The more you know, the better the out come will be.

P.s. I no longer have the wheels or air suspension cause it gets old hard-parking, rather than driving hard and enjoying the car. But to each their own.

Good luck man.

P.s.s There's a page on facebook called STANCE FRS/86/BRZ. I suggest you try to join that and ask some questions there.

lowering your car on coilovers and buying XXR wheels that don't fit is not stance.

I legitimately thought this was the only requirements for hellastanceflush society🤔

Only requirement for hellastanceflush society is willingness to pay a lot to make car worse. Once one decides on that, rest is minor details.

What else do I need? Can someone guide me in the right direction? please and thank you. And for the love of all things holy, keep the hate to a minimum. Thanks everyone in advance.

I'm no pro at stance but as far as parts you need from my daily internet cruising:
Wheels(obviously) about 9 inches wide, low offset
Lower control arms front and back
Toe arms in the rear
Maybe upper control arms (I think racerx fabrication makes front and back and sells a full kit)
Airbags.-now some people want coils because static is more legit than"cheating" with bags BUT driving around at .5 inches off the ground will literally destroy your car... if there is a rock on the road, a driveway, a dip on the highway, and some cops may stop you and say your car is unsafe and not let you leave :eek: So use bags to look awesome parked and still be driveable.

Be prepared to spend and respend to get it right. I've seen a guy around town who has holes worn thru his fenders from rubbing. Don't be that guy. Stance looks great but if you have holes in your fender you look like an idiot.

My last tip is to go look for build threads for stanced cars to see what parts they are using(like upper control arms cuz I'm realy not sure you need those). Find as many as you can, write down their parts, last their specs if they have them, keep it organised and you should see a trend(everyone has this part but not this other one etc). It's gonna be tricky and you should expect your car to be sitting waiting for parts as you figure out what you need(when you put things together and things don't fit) but it can be done. Good luck

**UPDATE**
So I followed most of the advice you wonderful (some of you) people have given me. I decided to get bc extreme low coils with 14k or 16k's not sure yet got to do more research. I've been reading and if I could I want to get 16" wheels and a little wider than 9. I dont know about offset though. Was also looking at lower control arms but thats after the coils and wheels. Any thoughts ? Open to suggestions.

Smaller wheels will make tucking almost impossible because you'll be on the ground before they are under the fenders no?
