    Its called "the stretch look" with the tires stretched it puts an angle on the tires, that way when i am to hit a railroad track or something my fender doesnt **** up, my tire doesnt bust, etc. when i go to the track ill set my camber more, and wheni leave ill have less camber.

    I read about this somewhere..... i cant remeber where though..... somthing about how drifters use it because its easier to break loose the tires when theyre stretched out like that.

    I guess not the correct spelling of "taught."

    But Yogi is right. It's to clear the fender so a lowered stance is achieved w/o damaging the tires.
