It's an opinion. I believe slamming a brand new car on 22" is a waste of money and a lack of style. To each his own.

wait wait wait... before everyone throws around the word rice lets define it...

Racing
Inspired
Cosmetic
Enhancement

so... my question is: Who here DOESN'T have anything on their car that fits the definition? anyone with anytype of rear spoiler 'fits', anyone with a front lip 'fits', want me to go on or would everyone rather continue living in denial

DENIAL FTW!!!

You lower a car to improve handling. Slamming a car on coils does not improve handling. Air suspension is even worse in EVERY possible way for handling. But yea it sure does get it low. Tucking wheels is nice because why? We're not driving low riders man, wake up.

Yes I think air suspension on a sports sedan such as the IS350 is tacky and ghetto as all hell. It fits right in there with lambo doors. I think stretching 245 tires on 10.5" rims is a little tacky too. I love the look of a 4" lip like all the rest, but if it's going to hurt handling or bring any part of my car "down" then I dont want it.

Its also funny to me that I dont see anyone doing air cylinders on the infiniti forum (g37's), or bmw forum (3 series), or mercedes forum (c class). I'm sure there may be a few but it seems like only this forum is full of junkies looking to trade performance for looks. Since when do you sacrifice performance for looks?? I'll be on KW V3's next summer with a nice clean wheel/tire combo. I wont be slammed, but low enough to look clean/nice while hopefully handling a little better. I guess the corolla guys (ooops, i mean is250 guys) have nothing else to look forward to then scraping metal on the street.


Yea this IS should def have this look, it fits real well. IDK where is suede JDM neck pillows are though??? hmmmmmm
