That negative camber looks like pure SH#T!!! Also, the super stretched tire look with the lips sticking out 2" past the bead of the tire look ridiculous as well IMO...

I LOVE VIP style. Just not that much camber, -5 seems to be about right.

Dude, that looks like 3-4 degrees negative or more. Doesn't even look safe IMO?

Man, if those cars don't have air ride, that stance is too low to where it can't really be driven? The stance & wheels look sick, but I'm not feelin the over-agressive negative camber... Its too much work just getting the thing out of a driveway...

No, that's waaay more than 5. Heres an example of 5.5 degrees negative.

I'm with you on this one Mike, VIP style cars are awesome. Although in this case, it's a little too extreme...but VIP cars are cool overall.

I remember stretching 195/50r15 tires on 15x8 wheels for low rider pick ups back in the early nineties. It's still better than the jacked up POS' with 24" wheels running down the road.

fucking stupid fucks riding on the inside of the wheel and a half inch of the tire hahaha hella jdm dew hahahahaha

They look like this generations fast and the furious. But instead of hitting the nitrous your hitting the guardrail when your tires blow out after 30 miles.

That has to be the gayest thing I've seen in a long time it's just as gay as putting the little stuffed animal under your rear bumper

LMAO. ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)
You might be able to get 1k miles on those tires before you need replacments.

Everyone has there personal preference of what they do and don't like. Like what was said above, its better than a lifted 87 caprice on 24's..
You want to drive this..
Or cruise this..
Now, the one in that first video was outrageous, but there are people out there that do it right and have a sweet looking ride.

come on now, I thought Donks were the gayest thing you've ever seen. lol
Posted by 04 S281 (Member # 9229) on

I think "donks" or "scrappers" are waaayyy worse... Tho that tool in the video definitely took the camber a bit far... that has to be 8-10 degrees negative!
VIP style was started for japanese ballers, they usually aren't desigened to be daily driven. They build them like that in Japan simply to say "cuz i can"
but the style is pretty cool if you've ever seen one in person. With folding tray tables in the rear seats like a plane, and rear window shades...

I lived in japan for 7 yrs you hardly see any buckets driving around and if you do it's an American GI driving it they are realy into fixing everything up even bikes

This is a perfect example of people who know nothing about cars, thinking they can build a G machine..... How much of the tire comes in contact with the ground on a 255 35 18 with that kind of neg cam?
