I think of stance as implying purpose, a coiled spring, a tiger about to pounce. The purpose here is compromised in favour of the look, as you're discovering.

Not my tastes, but car modding is up to the individual.
Very well said! You may have noticed this has been my first time opting to lower a car I drive hence no experience in 'stancewerks' so to speak but as time elapses and I discover more and more through my own curiosity, I will evolve with this car and hope to have it stanced to please the eye, rather than a dumped look. It was drive-able but not practical. Luckily I drive on fairly Ok roads and parking at work is all flat level, small obstacle and I'm shtooked hence the raise. Once my new pads / discs will get replaced I will also have the car's height re-adjusted.

Trial and error but tis' the beauty of coilovers
