just hopping on the bandwagon of posting pics. Truthfully, not that my ride is super low, I'm getting pretty tired of the slammed scene. No matter what justification we try and make to ourselves or one another, driving a slammed vehicle is not as comfortable as driving one that is not. Plain and simple. Maybe in a year or so I'll sell my wheels and buy some 19's and go with a more comfortable height, but for now I get by with just me and my lady at this height. If I did frequent passengers I'd probably make the swap sooner.

Your car's still looking sweet JR. Haven't seen you at the gym lately.

Personally every single car that I have ever owned since the late 80's early 90's has always been slammed(I mean scrapping, dragging, rubbing slammed), I must admit I have grown used to the stiff/bumpy ride and don't mind it, but now with all the high tech revolutionized suspensions available allowing you to dial in a pefect ride, I'm not sure how one can complain. Compared to back in the days, now I'm literally riding on air!
To some being "Slammed" is a scene or Fad, to others it's the focal point to any car or project they might have.

It's definitely a matter of personal preference and opinion which should always be respected.

Thanks Tony,

I'll be back in the FALL semester. Right now summer classes are really packed so I just go straight home and hit the gym here in Fremont. Hope all is well man.
