Draw back of lowering the car with Wheel Offset

Since the new american style : STANCED is in action these days.

You probably have seen cars with the tyres coming out of the car's body and sometimes the wheel is tilted to an angle!

something like this



What are the drawbacks of having your car sitting this low on piece of rubber

Lets discuss

 

well what you can expect just from looking at it...harsh ride, no suspension travel at all, catching the nose of the car on kerbs, potholes because its sitting so low..race suspension which has negative camber will make sure that the car is twitchy when theres a change in the gradient of the surface on which you are driving while also increasing tyre wear...!

 

haha thats so true.

Still people love all this.

its not ideal is it.

 

also you loose alot of steering. theres alot of rubbing so handling is very limited!!

 

yep...i am curious to see these things on the road in action...!

 

i Saw a BMW 325i with these sorta wheels

 

its just a craze now. ppl want to have the most stupid offsets, its a waste only good for a car that u would never drive.

 

thats true. show cars only.
people investing too much in show cars. i was reading at one of the forums

 

hahaha...now thats funny..spending money on a car which is never gonna do what it was intended to do..
