But its not "lower". Maybe you missed all the posts of people saying different cars are "kit low" or anything similar. The above 240 is slammed. If he put a kit on it the kit would basically be touching the ground at all times.


Here's a pic of my 240 from ~2 yrs ago when it was more complete... day after I got it.

LOL, I didn't realize rim diameter played a roll in how low a car physically is granted you keep the same overall tire diameter. Guess I've been wrong all these years in assuming that it was the overall diameter of the tire as to how low a car really is/capable of. Then rim offset and width along with tire width and sidewall size plays part in what you can "fit".

Car could have a 185/65/15 or a 235/35/17 and the height of the car doesn't change. Its when you start screwing with the overall diameter of the tire that ride height is changed along with how much that tire fills the wheel well.



On topic... let me know what this car is as far as being slammed or kit low:

But your an idiot, because you never keep the same size tire when putting on a larger wheel.

Ever. If you do, your missing the whole point and don't get it.

Reading comprehension > you


Anyhow, to go on what you just said, tell that to the idiots that extremely stretch tires and run stupid amounts of poke. Those rims are for cars with wider tubs or larger flares. They are missing the point on putting that wide of a rim on for a stupid fad with no gain but a few points at a car show. Running a tire designed for a rim 2" narrower than what they are mounting on is not only dangerous, but you don't get the full "potential" that you could with that wide of a rim.

I have no problem with some poke/stretch, but some of the **** that people are doing is just flat out stupid.

Everyone shut up. That 240 is NOT slammed. Its not even tucking tire in the front. Failure. Its low but not slammed.

Who the **** actually keeps track of that? I may be speaking from a drift car point of view, but as long as the sidewall is <50, I couldn't give a **** how badly my speedo is off or how low it makes me...
