Camber doesn't kill tires, toe does.

Just having race parts installed doesn't mean it is going to function well with that ride height or alignment. Maybe it does but to me it looks like it is set up to look really cool first and function well second. Again, I don't know the car personally so maybe it does work setup like that but for the street I doubt it.

Yeah, you obviously don't know this car or anything in general.

Not necessarily...I can throw a set of Moton/Ohlins/JRZ dampers on my car with 600lb springs all around, tune it, and have it ride better than, say, Koni Yellows with 400lb springs. Good dampers can go a hell of a long way when it comes to ride quality with stiff springs.

Good point about the ride height/alignment. past a certain point, camber will hurt if the rest of the car isn't set up for it. Likewise, without proper compensation, lowering the vast majority of cars that much will start to adversely affect your toe and camber curves as the suspension moves up and down...not to mention you might also run into issues with the axles...

Of course I'm not saying anything definitive about that X, I'm just talking to what I can see and what has been said. I won't deny that it may very well be a very quick car that still rides well.

I'll throw pics up of my buddy's red X when I get home...work has Photobucket blocked...
