So I know everyone here hates stance, but I don't really care. I wanted to show you all this rusty, inoperable, piece of shit car that was more likely to be crushed than ever see the road again when I bought it, that I absolutely ruined.

that's not stance. that's just low.

Needs more negative camber.

You look like a poster boy for a sperm bank in that photo of you on the hood though. Great job!

I think it looks fine on the steelies. I'd drive it as is.

Well, you'd try to drive it as is, it doesn't have an engine in it right now.

Here's the new wheels:

Cool that you got those rims!
I may not like stance, but I respect you and your car. If that's what you would like to do to your car, then do it!

That's what I'm all about. Doing what you want with your car. Can't wait to start doing the performance stuff to this car next winter.

What are your plans? Just out of curiosity, why wait a year?

Still have to get the rotors drilled for 5 lug, tires mounted, minitubs made, the 1600 running, and then it's going to shows. The plans performance wise are Subaru swap, and eventually it'll be tweaked to Corvette power to weight. It'll be put on bags when we do the Subaru swap.

Sounds like it will be extremely fun to drive! Have fun and good luck.

Shave the beard and get a high & tight cut. Wear dress shirt with suspenders. Keep the car with that patina. Get mad hipster bitches.

Stance is in the eye of the beholder. Some are better than others. (I still want Oskar)

you can probably remove any bushings you find in there.

That'll get you camber for daaays

Holy shit those are awesome. When do you plan on putting them on?

Hopefully mid next month temporarily. Have to get my brakes drilled for 5 lug, and the tires mounted. I say temporarily because we have to make the minitubs. Welding+Yokohama S Drives doesn't end well.

Well those are going to look killer on the car when they're put on! Have you done a disk conversion on this car? I want to do one on my Baja if I keep it around long enough.

As itchy said, the old steelies have mote character but if you're going to go modern those are an excellent choice.

They'll make it look lower too, because the wheels will be tucking, not just the tires.
