I think what the 'vip' style cars are crazy, but I wouldn't do it to my car. I'm not rich enough to be buying new tires every couple of months because of camber wear.

maybe in your opinion, but there are no laws or rules when it comes to car purchases, maybe some folks buy a car with the intent of making it perform, others might want to go a different route and customize it to their liking.

I might add, the Enzo has adjustable suspension, the Bugatti Veyron has it as well, so bags or air ride isn't always a bad thing, besides, the 8 isn't really a sports car anyway (haha)

edit:that red 8 looks like a chop,

Check out my Monster Truck Tires!!!

Switching to a more proper sized tire this weekend. This is the type of wheel that can really use the help of aero to pull off. *sigh* Oh well, I'll rock them for now!

I think its fun to try different types of setups out and these are my current flavor.

I can't wait for my next setup. Based on what you guys have said about previous setups, the next combo of specs + wheel + color will for sure be a 100% favorite, hehe
