- Brayden, I am confused... are you bragging? I like your car just fine BJ and really could give two shits if you don't like fitment. I wouldn't expect anyhting more from a Honda enthusiast from Sask. (JK)
But seriously, just because you read something on Honda Tech doesn't make it true. Just like if I read something on Zilvia, or Ratsun. ect, ect. doesn't make it true. Honda and fads go hand and hand, sorry but it is true. I think it is great that you have a honda style, but your style would look dumb on a Nissan. I like the Flush look on S2K's becase they are RWD, so that is a different ball game.
As far as it being a trend this is what Mark Arcenal had to say about that, you may not like it but try to understand it before you judge it.
" It's not a trend. Artists draw concept cars with no ground clearance and very flush wheels. Once those guys start drawing to spec, then I'll have to say it was a trend. Also, we started our site in 2004 and the style has been around years before we started the site so It'll be here for years to come. Its funny cause guys/girls that are into fixing up cars aren't going to change their wheels to stock sizes with lots of rubber. Trends are Louis Vuitton wrapped bride seats " of course im bragging, how else am i going to get you and Adam mad? obviously im kidding. i didnt think i had to state the obvious that you guys hate how i mod cars. but i also stated that im building MY car not QCA's car. And you dont understand the honda-tech statement. the s2000 was made to handle and ment to be a car to drive spiritedly and taken to the track. not to be dumped and have -8 degrees of camber. Thats just a short version. I also dont dislike stretched wheels cause of the look, its the dangers that come with it. haven;t you read the horror stories? come on stop being so serious i wanted you to lose it like kyles_r32 and post ridiculous cars with -10 degrees of camber and tyre stretch. | |

I guess it all depends on your driving conditions but it definitely isn't a myth. | |

x2 Done right! Low offset and stretched rubber is fine, but I prefer BJ's car over that red one hands down. It's the kinds of car that goes from hard parking to Auto X duty with no fucking around in between the two. And it looks great doing it. Functionality isn't back, it never left. Also about the camber arguement. If you put hella camber on the front of a FWD car, even if your tow is bang on, the front tires will wear like shit. Most of the weight is on the front, and they have to handleputting power to the ground and turning. If you put hella camber on the rear of a FWD, it doesn't fucking matter it doesn't add any noticeable wear, you'd still get lots of life out of the tires. Slight to moderate camber doesn't affect wear at all assuming the other adjustments are right. It's a bad toe adjustment that really chews tires up. | |

I guess it all depends on your driving conditions but it definitely isn't a myth. all this was said was because you said youd be going thru a million $$ worth of tires per year. i know for a fact even if your camber is even at -5 and your toe is bang on you WONT go thru tires in a season. in fact im running -3 degress right now. brand new set in may and i drive like an asshole. they have 80% left, if not more. and guess what. when it wears down on the inside, YOU FLIP them around. imagine that. - Heretic wrote:
