VDUBS arent meant to be pushed lol they can only push so far anyways.

but in a way you are right there are people out there who take it to the extreme, and not project335i extreme i mean nasty disgusting nonfunctional extreme, to me stance is balanced tasteful mix or poke and ride height. And THEN theres this







NOT OKAY...

Ugghh If I could find someone in town that was down to do a shoot of my car I'd post up some pics. I hate no longer having all my camera gear.

So the guy asks a question about pushing the car to its performance limits on back roads, and you respond with drift cars? Please don't be retarded. Drift cars are specifically engineered to do one thing and one thing only, and last time I checked, no one in this thread is drifting their bmw.

I will call you a noob. There are fully built turbo drift cars that are stanced like this.
Not to say that stance cars can't be set up to handle spirited driving but this comparison is invalid.

Drift car setup is completely different than grip driving, and I doubt too many 335i owners are out drifting every corner when they go for a nice drive.

A drift car is set up to slide, whereas most of our cars are set up more akin to a grip car, designed to stick in a corner rather than throw the tail out.

I used that as 1 example of "pushing it". These cars can also be built to perform on the track as most are very low and have a few degrees of negative camber, both these factors are useful when tracking your car. You just need stickier tires, coilovers, strut bars, performance bushings, etc; So you please don't be retarded. A car being stanced has little to nothing to do with it's performance ability and could very well be pushed to the same limits as a car that's not stanced if they are both built with the same suspension components. The stanced car would just look better doing it.

Now with that said the reason you don't see people pushing their stanced cars like that is because they are built to look good not to perform well. Not saying they can't do it but that is not why they were built. Low and slow is a term used because most guys interested in stance don't particularly care about tracking their cars or even spirited driving for that matter. Furthermore, a huge concern for most stanced cars is shitty roads. If you take it to a track that has predominately smooth roads they could essentially push their cars pretty hard if they had the right suspension set up. So a stanced car just like a regular car would still need the proper suspension set up to be fun "in the twisties".
