What does it mean to ride static? Slammed and smooth?

Static means on coilovers, the wheels are 2 piece I went this route because I can get them made to offset I desired to the mm most 3 piece offsets are within a small window. I like these wheels because I haven t seen a ton of cars with them. I think they ll look real good the pic I posted has a weak offset mine will look significantly deeper.

Lol I tried to warn you i almost went more aggressive but if I realized if I did a pull I wouldn't want to lose the body line above the fender so this put me at less than a inch pull and 2k in body work for less than a inch wasn t really worth it for me. I kinda like being that guy with the most aggressive offset with factory camber and no fender pull

I'm sorry but not meant to thread jack, what you think about the tsuna and fusa knot hanging on the mirror? Are those too much if your car not slam with fat lip wheels?

Out of all members on this board you have been the most helpful.

My car is pretty retarded now, somewhere between a VIP car and a Euro static dropped car. I won't post pictures until after the body work... i have realized if you want to run very aggressive and flush you have to get used to some rubbing! I am having the rear redone with the factory body line kept.

Heres my teaser...

Pay close attention to the imprint of the water the tires left! haha
