Slammed on 18s, post your pics!

[Jeffk]

I usually don't say much about all this bullshit but ya'll need to chill the fuck out. Everyone has their own tastes.

I have met Sharktales and his brother. 2 of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet. I have yet to read a post of his where he just straight bashes someone who posts pics of a set of Darkstars or whatever even though that's obviously not his taste.
Shit, he even put on a set of "normal" fitment wheels and tires to meet up with a large group of us in order to avoid any drama.

I don't like the stretched,poked,tucked, nipped, whatever trend either but it's all in the eye of the beholder. How many of you all hated on Airlift for years? Some of you still do but it's much more widely accept now than it was just a little over a year ago when I joined this forum.

Maybe just don't comment at all or just say "if you like it, it's your ride" and move on.

@serb. Oh shit I'm NOT supposed to drive around this low? I guess thats why I keep bottoming out...

Haha. Probably explains why you haven't been able to turn in corners.

Lol jk.

I wouldn't even be able to get out of my driveway like that. Hell as it is I have to enter and exit at a crazy angle to avoid dragging the headers and getting high centered.

 

[Wes06]

psh, who needs to corner when your living life 1/4 at a time, for those 10 seconds or less.....your free...

haha yea i doubt id be able to get out either, back out of garage onto a slope down the hill then the road

thanks for the kind words.

it boils down to many things. mostly time and maturity, I dont have the time or want to put the effort into getting in piss contests.

the only hope i have is that we would all be as adventurous as some of you guys have been. alot of guys are winding down their coilovers, have air ride, have even better and better wheel and tire combos. and thats something to be happy about considering the traditional demographic that owns mustangs.
some of you guys should have been gto owners, due to your retarded, uneducated, close minded, and hating ways, but we will take the good with the bad. ill keep on trucking bc alot of folks are beasts on the forums and weaksauce in person.

with that being said I am a car guy, and I will explore all "fashions" of car modding. not bc its trendy or bc it is acceptable, but bc i like it. i love the automotive culture and the aftermarket.

i look what i have built both in past and present and im proud of the progression. and that is what my personal, professional, and spiritual life is about. progression.

[slammeds197]

Its called "slammed on 18s" for a reason and it seem to be that i am slammed on 18s, yeah air ride is cool and I'd love to have it but I like turning head sitting and inch or so off the ground and not having to hit switches

 

[mikeyfitz]

^ Technically we can sit a shit ton lower than you and turning heads without hitting switches, we can just leave it lower lol.

 

[Wes06]

mmm mikey, now that is a good lookin sig

and yea, we can drive it at the very edge of low just fine, just means if theres an obstacle we can still get past it without bottoming out

 

[CaliforniaSpecial]

I don't really consider mine slammed but it drags on a lot of shit. Headers made it worse.

What headers are you running? My kooks headers actually helped hold my exhaust up higher and is a non issue even with my coilovers dropped about 2 inches.

I've got Kooks too. Running the catted X.
I'm sure the 45 / 40 series bring it down even more. Plus the added weight of the supercharger...so my 1.5" K-spring drop is probably now at like 2.25"
