I just don't get it, you cant tell me this is safe. it looks like shit. the car itself is a very well kept and clean car, although i'm not a fan of the car. I just do not see the point in doing this. yea its the "in thing," but come on people

"in thing" you mean by not having a tire that fits your rim. I'm sure it had to be a buddy or himself who put that tire on i don't think any company would do it and give it back to the person like that... What a bunch of idiots

its on airbags so it can be raised. I'm thinking it was just that low for the pictures. but there is absolutely no functionality to doing this. so i just do not get it

This is a beyond extreme example of people stretching their tires. A lot of people who are running extremely wide rims, sitting real low, do this too help prevent rubbing issues (not this extreme though, this is fucking awful.) Drift cars usually run stretched tires though, and that is prolly what started this "trend". A lil stretch isn't bad, but this is disgusting.

Its called VIP fitment. Its big in the minitruck an lowrider scene. On alot of the cars I think it actually looks pretty trick. Ill post some good examples tomorrow maybe when im more concious.

Ya most people do it to help rubbing issues.. My new wheels have a slight stretch, and I like it nothing crazy like below.. But it had to be done. I'll let everyone check out my car once I mount the tires and let you all see it in person!
NOW THIS SHIT IS CRAZY! but it's now they have been doing it for years.

Eh... drift cars are one thing and not like that.
I don't get the rusted look too. Looks like someone bought an aftermarket panel and was too cheap to get it painted.... given some time and you have the end result....

I remember reading up on that bimmer as well. There's another rusted camo looking one like that thats been featured in a few magazines. Rust isn't my style at all but both the z and the bimmer are stanced very well. I know a few drift guys have been running stretched tires for awhile now, makes no sense how stretched tires like that can handle drift abuse.
