he's breaking boundaries, what's more to say? not everyday you see a car on the road with fitment like this (static too). roll hard, park harder. only some will understand.

I get the agressive look that a camber kit will give you. But this seems way over the top and even more so since the rears are tilted so much more.

Is there any actual reason to do this? Or is this just the most expensive way to destroy your tires?



Let me say, I am deffinatly not trying to disrespect your car. She is beautiful.
I just dont get it
idk its a fad, go kill the fad with fire.

guys if you have questions regarding style, and if you have comments regarding the car, please keep it CIVIL. This is a caution to keep from descending into personal attacks.

This car is awesome. Lots of inspiration with this build. Way to push the envelope a bit.

haha, man, I don't know how you can do it. I was on -5.6 camber and after 4 months, I needed new tires. I had to do fender work to dial down the camber to -3 so I don't burn through tires so quickly. Dedication to roll hard like that imo.
