how else can you fit a 6" lip? stretch the tire like tyrone stretches a trojan!
This is, bar none, the cleanest, best looking, raddest fist gen in the universe!

/thread.

Actually would look cool with some flares and those trippy fender mirrors though, kinda like a 240z!

Sounds good to me, but alot of the dipshits running around within the trend will be quick to insult another car not following suit. It's been said many times before do what you will to your car, but don't try to push your style on others as being the right way to do things.

Everyone has the constitutional right to make their car impractical and grossly stupid, but I have the right to tell you that your brain is f** up, and to not give you any respect.

Shit is shit no matter what you call it.

I made this thread to stop the derailment of another member's INTRO thread so technically no...it's not a bad thing. It went exactly the way I thought it would. There is nothing about "stretch and poke" that is functional...it's all about the looks. Kinda like face piercings; some people think it looks cool, others laugh at the idiocy.

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol

Tire stretching is unsafe & just a bad idea on a street driven vehicle. To all those who follow the trend, what will the next COOL thing be?
