    theres a difference between good flush-fitting wheels and being a "SoCaL" hardparking faggot.

    mike, for example. your wheels sit pretty damn flush. yet your car can function perfectly as a DD or a track car or whatever you need it to be. theres certain cars that i can think of that i see at meets which are completely slammed, 0 offset wheels with tiny ass tires, etc. these people also are most likely bottoming out their shocks on any given bump in the road and scraping over crushed coke cans. FAIL.

    my car bottoms out occasionally, and i scrap damn near anything......But i drive it everyday..and all day. I had an interview today, and i couldnt even go in the parking lot because of the speedbump was as high as the bottom of my door. I had to park across the street and walk. This aint nothing new..and its not a fad. My car is perfectly functional, and plenty others that are lower than me drive their cars plenty low on a daily basis..with no real hinder on their life.

    I dont think my truck really applies to this convo, but fitment means everything stays just inside the fender wells.

    As far as scraping on things, I do that on purpose and it doesnt affect my life in any way. It makes me happy to see sparks flying from the back of my truck as I drive down the road.
