I hate when people are lazy and don't have the corners. Get it right, get it tight.

^ I won't ever remove my corners. If it comes down to it, I'll raise the car before I remove the corners. Just makes the car look kinda rigged up and unfinished

Yep, IG!

I come on here randomly from time to time, to check things out. Sometimes looking at the classified section because, who knows!

Awesome to see all these 8s rocking aggressive fitment these days, and slammed, too!

Some people who have low cars with aggressive fitment these days were hell bent against it back in the day. My, how times change

I've always been about it, but I think I'm ready for change. Gonna raise it up some and run like 265/35's or 255/35's and have more of a track oriented stance. Still gonna be low but a different kind of animal.

I'll contribute 18x9.5 +20 235/40 all around. Next summer I'll be going with 255s or 265s depending on my next set of wheels. I'm eyeing a set of Works or maybe Advans Gram Lights for next summer. I hate the stretched look now lol.
