Someone stepped on the poor thing.

How to make an otherwise great-looking car ugly.
27Meh I say to each their own. Would I do it to my car? Nope. But I have no hate for other people doing it.
26The problem is that these are incredibly unsafe. You’re putting about 5% of the part of the tire meant to keep the car in control on the pavement. I don’t want to be on the road with these morons because if they hit a pothole, who knows what direction they’re going to ping off.
As far as style, I’m with you, but these are massive safety compromises.
32I mean I don't exactly see stance cars out on the highway often, but maybe thats my area and when I'm awake. I think they're usually more of a project you take to car shows/meets or whatever cause they're lowered so far they scrape all the time in regular driving and the suspension can't work without a meaningful amount of travel. Though it could be bagged (riding on air suspension that can rise and lower).
I think they look silly and they're definitely not practical, but I don't know that stance cars actually end up being a safety hazard, so I'm not inclined be judgey other than to say I don't personally like them. I could be wrong about the level of risk they pose people day to day though- in which case my stance would change.
3It's an art form, these things aren't out driving usually, they're displayed at shows and then put in a garage until the next show

Whay do you mean, that car is pretty co... WHY THE WHEELS?!
16Well what else were they gonna modify, the engine? The body? The head and tail lights?

I once saw these cartoon drawings of tuned cars in a shop somewhere.
I thought they looked neat, but that was back when I didn't know people actually angled their wheels like that. I thought it was just stylised like that for effect.
Man it looks stupid in real life.
15even worse are modern american cars, they look like they have breathing issues and are so hideously oversized that people are literally backing over their kids on their own driveways
15So I’ve seen race cars with relatively extreme camber used on a specific type of track, but what is going on in that photo? Is it just rolling on the inside rim?

6So are all your LED shit computers. Stop being judgey.
5I'm talking shit behind a parking lot speed bump. You are powerless to stop me.
29I can't drive like a fuckin moron through houston in my led computer
20I should hope not. Good thing you can in one of these.

when was the last time anyone saw those LED computers? LED computers in no way affect others, cars like this do.

Stupid yes, but I'll support it. I'll support anything car related
4Bold statement, is "hit and run" included in this anything?
3Who gets hit?

I vaguely remember learning about excessive camber being good for doing sick drifts and stuff, fucked if you hit a speedbump though.
2Camber for drifting is to provide more or less grip or control. Especially on the front tires that lose contact surface when they are turned 80 degrees. Drift cars usually don't have much camber on the rear, the front is usually under 10 degrees with the top of the tire tilted inward.
Camber in the case of the OP has nothing to do with performance or practicality. It is done to be extreme, either in the case of camber for camber sake or to allow the car to ride as low as possible with the largest wheels/tires possible. The OP example is almost certainly camber for camber sake due to how extreme it is.
