Examples?




not a 240 fan at all but that looks GOOD.

RWD fitment or a RWD car

A big part of the reason why a lot of those cars are so extreme is because they are not allowed to modify the motor in many European countries, so they start doing really extreme things elsewhere to be unique. I do agree that a lot of times things get taken overboard and out of hand, but that's the way they do it. Half of you criticizing it are probably all over the nuts of anyone with a "VIP" styled car that has wheels sitting sideways when the car is lowered. lol...

I like nicely done VIP cars, I like nicely done VWs, I basically like nicely done cars. That black car is nicely done, except that his wheels are 2 inches too wide, it is mexican fitment and if that is what they're going for then good for them, I don't like it.

They're flat from the factory. The suspension design (that Dave hates) pushes the wheel forward the more you lower the car.

My post/question was actually rhetorical.

It was another joke aimed at how the wheel is pushed forward.

one of the best examples of proper fitment can be found right here on vadriven.

you vdub dudes need to take some fucking notes. you dont go on the interweb and see what size everyone else uses and end up with fitment like that, that shit takes work.

emf bitches.
