Default who has the most aggressive stance on a crossfire?

hey guys,
I'm new here, my name is Locky and i'm from Australia, i dont have a crossfire as yet, i currently own a modified mazda rx8. anyway i'm looking at getting rid of the mazda soon and buying a crossfire. what i want to know is who here has the most aggressive stance on a crossfire? from the research i have donwe i have struggled to find anything i thought was aggressive stance wise....by that i mean lowered to the extent that there is no gap between tyre and guards over big offset rims that sit as close as possible to the edge of the guards.... its the big thing in europe at the moment as far as car modifying goes, im pretty sure there is a big scene for it in the states now too, its just starting to pop up here and there in Australia so im pretty keen to modify the crossfire i get in this manner... if u still dont understand what i'm talking about google "hellaflush" or "stance nation" I've included some pics below of a honda s2000 with an agressive stance, (i dont expect any crossfires to be this aggressive but it gives you the idea) thanks guys, post pics of overall cars and wheel fitment (would be good if you also mention what wheel and tyre sizes your running (diameter/width/offset) , as well as suspension setup,
Thanks guys,
Locky

IDK.

My Mom, bless her soul, used to stand like that when she had to pee.

An interesting look,
But where on earth do you find a road smooth enough to actually drive and not do damage to the car?

I will never understand why anyone goes with a streached tire. It looks terrible/ricey, makes the car unsafe, weakens the sidewall and makes the car handle like sh*t.


Any photos of your car?

most aggressive???


Sat. when the broken down drunk chick with the broken down car pulled up in the left turn lane approx. 6 inches from my drivers door mirror only to have her car die and then need help.

No no joking we weren't aggressive.....but Gary did say after helping her "get he!! out of here!"
Later it came to me she could have just as easily hit us. When we pushed her into a parking lot she didn't turn the wheel much (no power steering) she turned it enough to go in but couldn't really crank it, headed straight for a tree, stopped 12 inches short of hitting it. Had we realized we should have called the police "to help her".

Locky-is this a mate of yours?

Rob - I was thinking the same thing, the alignment is horrible and in turn makes the car look horrible.

sorry for the "cold" welcome. Welcome to the forum, and good luck finding your Crossfire.

Building a show car that looks like that is one thing, BUT if youre going to actually *drive* the car, those setups are terrible. Look at how much outer tread on that S2000 isnt even touching the ground...

Nevermind the looks (totally subjective)... uneven tire wear, poor handling, and safety all come into play here.

haha i understand the impracticalities of this, and i wasnt intending on anything as crazy as that s2000, that is nuts! i just put those pictures up as an over exagerated example, that thing is pretty much undrivable, but you get the idea...

mrphotoman as requested, i've attached a few pictures of my rx8 for you.

VALKRYDERGUY thanks bud, ive seen that bagged suicidedoors.com crossfire! definately a nice ride. i'm probably more interested in big offset then just slammed. very cool though.

former NXMX5 haha thanks bud, its all good... i know its not alot of peoples taste, i expected to get flamed alot harder to be honest.

anyway back on topic, who has pics of a crossfire with big offset rims sitting close to the guards????

thats very nice! now we're moving in the right direction! can anyone beat helms stance? i would love to see a close up photo.. anyone know what wheels and suspension he is running... this is similar to what i was thinking once i get one but maybe another inch or so of dish, touch more offset and roll the factory guards to their absoloute limits....

Your car looks way better than that S2000.

I know Infinite and Ryan248 (I know it is Ryan something, not sure of the numbers) both hhave cut SRT springs on NA XF's that are the lowest I have seen, and Ryan is running 20's all the way around. Search and you will find... crap, then search a little more

From what my volkswagen friend said, you can get away with crazy offset and low ride height with our cars. The wheel tucks in nicely when driving. Too bad all the wheels I like are stupid money which I dont have

Not really my cup of tea there but maybe it is just the pictures. ive seen all lime green rims with about a 3 inch lip in the back that looked really good in person but horrible in pictures so maybe its the same thing here.
