Ridal Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 Yea I know what you mean. It's definitely not the typical rake/tyre/rims combo. I guess I'm pretending I'm in Japan and ridiculous, impractical, awesome cars are semi acceptable in a small group. Turns out I'm not in Japan. Is what broken?

bubblegoose Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 is it broken? is also what my mrs thought have a go with some ballon tyres and yellow tyre paint on the rear, and maybe 1" blocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 These would be heaps cooler if they raised the rear 5 inches huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoKer Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 hehe but yea is front certable? dont matter how it looks, fact ppl are arguing about it is neat rear blocks (assume blocks) certable? is it worth it? all questions only you know answer to just do it, if you have to ask what looks cool then your doing it for the wrong reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridal Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 It's tricky one for me because I think both will look good. That's why I was interested in other peoples thoughts. Front is proper adjustables so that should be all good. I'm still not sure on min clearance though. The crossmember is fairly close to the ground.

KKtrips Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Even if it looked good (which it doesn't) and the car handled OK like that (which it won't) and was not asking to be pulled over every 3 seconds by a cop (which it is) then as soon as you certify it - you HAVE to keep it at that height. If you lower it at all once you get sick of it (which you will) you will need to get the car recertified... Seriously it looks like some ironic hipster thing like rolling oversize 80's specs and pedo mustaches - looks stupid for the sake of being different... But at the end of the day - if you like it and want to do it then go for it.. Just be prepared for people to point and laugh/mock you for it.. (I think it will end up like "the Shark" - different but FUCKING ugly and is the butt of many jokes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glen Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 ^Agree'd. It's only going to work aesthetically if it looks like the car is raked because it had to be to fit the wheels in. ie Pro street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
