I would say raise it. I don't like the "tucked" look, just a 2 finger gap or so and thats where I like most of my cars to sit.

<< agree wid ^^^Originally Posted by gtikid
I never said that's what he had, just that it looks that way from a general perspective. A tasteful lowering of 1-2" can improve a car's stance and help it look a lot better by reducing wheel-gap and the like. However, a 3+" drop on an compact like a Civic just makes it look like you're trying too hard.Originally Posted by gtikid
This is just my opinion. If he's happy with it (which he seems to be) then more power to him. I just know that I would personally never drop a car low and I don't like the look of it.

To fit in, get with the scene, or whatever it is people call it.Originally Posted by gtikid
It's kind of like when a fashion becomes popular, but some people take it too far and you just laugh. Not the best of examples, but it's the same principle. I follow the same opinion with lifted trucks. A slighted lift truck can look nice, but these retards you see on Barrett Pkwy with Jeeps about 10 feet in the air just take it too far.
Again, it's all a matter of opinion.
To fit in???Originally Posted by Ran
You have to be kidding me. How does having a slammed car make them seem like they're "trying to hard". The same could of been said with you when you Yaris. Looks like you trying to hard to fit in, by getting a hatch
You see what I mean, makes no sense.
But yes, like you said, it's all personal opinion. I love slammed cars and I love trucks with HUUUUUUGE lifts. I would love to own a truck like that with a loud ass Hella Horn![]()
