Default The stance/flush thread

We've got the low offset thread, you don't have to be low there. We've got the slammed thread, you don't need nice offsets there.
I'm very fond of the slammed thread but I've grown a bit tired of cars that aren't low enough, cars with reverse rake and broken looks. Rules for this thread:

1. Rake is cool.
2. Reverse rake is not.
3. Your wheels can be ET60 (i.e. very high offset) for all I care, as long as they go more towards poke than tuck (they can be wider, spaced, etc)
4. Tucking ain't necessarily bad, tucking tread is a big bonus. The car needs to be low enough to pull off the wheels and make a nice stance. Doesn't need explaination I guess.
5. It's all show, doesn't need go. As long as you've got a nice stance I don't care if you rub all the way out of the garage and run the slowest crappiest engine ever.
6. Posting flush stances will make you KING.

For all I care you can post your own car, your friends' car or some random car you've found. And I don't mind if you post something else than Hondas, the mods might. If it's cool with them it's cool with me.

Poke, lowness and stretch are the three most important words when it comes to stance.

Illustrating a nice stance:


Have fun

The key to this thread is knowing what looks aggressive and what does not. I can already tell most of you guys do not have a clue.

Default Re: The stance thread (eiriksmil)

This thread falls under the same category as the slammed thread, as in its very specific and most of the people that have posted thus far don't apply. The OP is talking about a specific stance, moreover how well the wheels/tires fit. This is mainly a VIP thing, you don't see may hondas rolling with the stance that the OP specified. He means that the rim fits perfectly (the lip is even to or slightly past/behind the lip of the fender) and there is little gap between the rim and body. This really has nothing to do with how low the car actually sits or what you think is a good stance, its more about wheel fitment. Most VIP guys consider the "perfect" stance to be when the rim is slightly past the fender and the tire is pretty stretched, the fender lip should sit between the lip of the rim and tire (since a lot of them are on air suspension). That way you tuck the tread, but not the rim.

I like your stance, even if it's not flush. I like the Accord's stance, even if it's not flush.

It's about wheel fitment, but a low offset isn't enough.

It's bippu/euro, but even Evo owners manage this, with staggered fitments, low offsets and a flush stance. I'm starting to see more Honda owners doing this, fill this thread with delight.

This is sick




Oh, and you CAN achieve great stance without being flush. Volkswagen again, but it's a good example. Besides, I think the moderators will be pretty open-minded here, as long as it doesn't get filled with VWs like the slammed thread did at one point
