I look forward to seeing your head denting your roof over your first real pothole, maybe it will knock some sense into you as posing ain't worth it. Truth is you will find out how hard it is to get money from the city with a car that low and even then the time factor is too great. Of course you could lie about it so who knows.

It is what it is, I'm not gonna please everyone in my quest to be one of the most aggressive cars locally.

Roll hard or go home is the motto, I'm not doing it any other way, it's all I know. I always try to modify my car in a way that is uncommon and unique, but at the same time have it lookin good, if fender gap and tucked wheels are your thing then good for you, I won't bash you for it.

And I guarantee you that I know the roads as good as one can know them so no I don't go near speedbumps and yes I know where all the pot/man holes are in my daily driving routine.
If anything, we take better care of our cars than most auto enthusiasts because of the special circumstances we're under.

apparently a lot of ppl according to the warranty pile.

you should be driving with ur head up, looking ahead now faced down looking at the road surface 20ft ahead of u. thats what causes a lot of rear enders, but not looking at the road ahead instead of focused on the road in front of u.

Honestly.

People dodge that shit in a stock car.

If you paid any attention to the road surface, you would be able to avoid these so called potholes.

And in addition DeathTheft you're nitpicking like there's no tomorrow, you think we spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on custom wheels custom suspension etc... And then not pay attention to the roads and drive like idiots risk damaging everything. We're really careful, but we do understand obviously there is a higher risk for us than there exist for most other cars on the road.

If anything riding like this has made me a more attentive driver not in just regards to bad roads, but everything else around me including other drivers, not to mention I rarely go over the speed limit which is a good thing.

Yes it's really great that you have to do 2km to make a turn and slow everyone down and risk people rear ending you because a "normal" car wouldn't have to crawl at ant walking speeds into a parking lot. THANKS.

I'm sure I have less fender gap than both of you and going any lower is just a hazard to everyone around you.
