Default That insane LFA stance (SEMA)

The stance on the SEMA LFA is just insane. It is way more staggered than the factory stance. I think this is how the factory stance should have been.

Do you mean the "pushed out look" aggressive wheel offset??

Achieved by using spacers...

Many factory cars have that kind of stance (i.e. without spacers). No??? I think it is achieved through giving the car a wider track (axle width). However, I understand that does not necessarily translate to be better handling always.

I think the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 has a very staggered "pushed out" type of stance. Notice it is all wearing racing slick tires.

I think these LFA concept pictures illustrate what I had in mind for best stance. I think the production LFA should have this type of stance. I sometimes wish the production model looked 100% like this. :

Actually those are not slick tires because slicks have no tread grooves. The tires are concept tires made specific for show cars. They usually sport an exotic pattern like the concept LFA.

We would all love to have good fitment like that but it usually is sunk for production as suspension geometry and vehicle dynamics are factored in for everyday driving and comfort.
