yes there is a fine line for sure on when it becomes stupid and it's pretty easy when to tell that line has been crossed, but i don't think that the style of extreme camber is passed that line 'cause even with a high degree of camber, the overall look of their car is still classy and not obscene

plus - people can choose to do what they want with their car and other car enthusiasts such as us shouldn't be the ones criticizing other's ideas or styles - just my 2 cents (and now i'm broke) =)

10000000000% riced out looking crap... and a horrible idea from a design perspective as well.

Funny to laugh at though.

i agree more or less, i mean i have been criticized for
styling aspects of my car (harshly) but criticizing is
harsh word.....i think overall its just a bad idea.

more or less from a safety standpoint all-together.

i like camber my rears are slightly cambered and i think
its great......but i think this has stepped over the line
from safe into ridiculously bad steering land and could
possibly put other cars on the road in jeopardy should
this thing snap a hub/wheel while doing 60mph....

so in my head it seems stupid, were all entitled to our
opinions. and i didn't directly make fun of you as i didn't
realize your xb was dropped with camber like this...

or was i wrong? anyways thanks for sharing.
