Absolutely! That's what makes car modding so great...diff strokes for diff folks! It would be boring if everybody did the same thing. But that doesn't mean everybody is gonna like and praise a person's choices...just giving my opinion that's all. Besides...isn't that what these boards are about?

You're right, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it. Do I know that stretching my sidewall compromises my ride quality? Absolutely. Does my ride height also compromise my ride quality? Absolutely. But not enough to annoy me to not drive my car everyday... and I drive my car everyday.
You don't like stretch, poke, and a bit of camber, then that's fine by me. I don't like ill-fitting wheels and wheel / tire gap as a result of not being low enough.

And yes I guess I am a "pansy" if "pansy" means I don't modify my cars with mods that belong on auto-zone special civics owned by a 17 year old. Some people aren't satisfied with "just fine."

I called you a pansy cause you are lol not because i'm butt hurt over your comments whatsoever! Seriously grow a pair, if you can't take one measly name calling, infact i'm sure you've been called worse hahah forums aren't for ya just saying.
Where this autozone comment come from? No one said anything insisting you to modified your car in any kind of fashion. If this is how you think our G's are modified then once again this forum isn't for you sir; if you hadn't noticed 75% of forum memebers are similarly modified.
Now I'm curious, what's your perspective on how would you modify your G entirely given the chance?

I get it. You don't like mods that compromise performance and ride quality.
Understood. Most of us don't like wheel gap for being too high and wheels that aren't flush.
I always find it interesting that the majority of the "functional" enthusiast always have something to say about those that modify more for form / stance, where as the stance guys hardly ever say anything if you wanna slap on 305's on your 10.5 wheel and be at stock height.
Edit: And I'll also add that it isn't like I cut my springs or heated my OEM coils to get lower. I have all the proper suspension parts to achieve this look properly. (coils, camber arms, sways, endlinks, etc)

LOL who said I couldn't take it? I was just laughing at how quickly you resort to name calling just because I pointed out that modding a sports car in a way that reduces ride quality and performance is dumb IMHO and is the very definition of "rice." Just because you are satisifed with your car being "just fine" doesn't mean you aren't compromising the performance of your car. Your the one who had to resort to name calling rather than having an intelligent discussion (as I've had with others on here). By your posts i'd guess you're around 17 or 18 so I guess I can't take you too seriously ;-)
I'm giving you my feedback on how my car drives when driving aggressively and yes it grips just fine and does what it should I mean what else you want it to do?

Plus I'm not the one that made this personal...I was just giving my opinions on the cars...which us what the board is for. You made it personal with the whole "pansy" and "I'm sure you've been called worse" comments. I could've made a comment about you being from houston and how you're probably an inbred, redneck, white trash cowboy who sucks on hay during the day as a substitute for daddys cack while he's at work...but I didn't want to stoop to your level
Well that was fun! Now you run off and finish watching your Fast and Furious marathon. Hope we chat some other time :-)
