I hope you like having no traction in the rain and replacing tires frequently.

So you just want camber to copy how some other idiot's car 'looks'?
Is that it?
hmm...
I don't think I can put in words just how stupid this is.

dude in all reality just go get yourself some big wheels with a good negative offset, get some adjustable arms and mess with the camber until u get it the way u like it... and if the camber tucks your wheels in too much get spacers.

The real funny part is that you actually want to pay someone to do an alignment. You don't even know what an alignment is, do you? It's to properly set up the wheels to minimize wear on tires and/or have great performance out of vehicle. Now if your doing for looks, why would you pay someone to do your alignment. It won't matter, just do it yourself, if you don't have aftermarket ruca you can bend yours to achieve same results without spending much money, put a piece of block of wood on top and have another car hit you, instant -8 camber.

It looks like too much to me

But seriously OP you expect someone to logically answer that question from a picture? Then you bitch about people not answering your question and complain that people are bashing you, when you're the one that asked the stupid ass question. Figure it out your damn self if you want to make your car look retarded and replace tires once a month.

Looks about negative 9 to 11 degrees if you ask me.

On a lighter note, polished on white looks fucking good.

Somewhere around -3 to -5 front and right around -10 rear.

Seriously though, this thread is dumb. Take your car to the alignment shop and have them dial in the camber until you think it looks cool.

This coming from someone who combined name of a glorious motor into the name of a horrible fast food place.

Shut the fuck up. Sticking up for dumbasses is not a good way to make friends here. Your 20 tears old AND from FL, basically your about 2 blocks behind the start line. So unless you want the same treatment and label I suggest you quit while your ahead.

OP. shut the fuck up and buy a honda if you want that much camber JUST for looks. You are not welcome.





How do people still not know that there are so many assholes here?

After you replace the tires two to three times a year spending money on a useless setup, and being hazard on the roads especially in wet weather... yeah, what do you think we're going to say?

Enjoy...

lol, why have somebody else there he can blame for his stupidity. I say he just grabs a big ass hammer and beats the shit out of his baller rota's or sportmaxx's unti he gets his ideal camber. Might want to add some "JDM tyte yo" stickers to it as well just to add to the wonderful car he owns.

The bolded statement in itself is a contradiction, you don't get "good driving specs" and overly aggressive camber together, it's one or the other; Also nobody cares about your wheels or what you do with them, your rebuttle is moot at best. You can take your "show quality car" right off a cliff for all we give a shit just stop asking stupid questions.

Hahaha. The owner of that S2K's name is Thomas Tran. He lives around my area, I've see him post shit on facebook. The funny part was like 2 weeks ago when like a million people called him out on facebook about all his fake shit and he got suuuuuuuuuuuuper defensive. I remember sitting there reading it and just laughing my ass off. You should have seen the car before his alignment, mexi-poke like a ma'fucka.

Now that you know his name why don't you ask him yourself lol. And please don't go that route it looks like ass.
