if you can fit a finger between the tire and the fender than its not close to being slammed.


this is slammed. if your not running negative camber, collars taken out of your coilovers, on bags or hydros your not slammed

This is an example of slammed. This is my friends S2K. We installed his Megan coilovers and put them as low as possible

Notice the road reflector under the lip in the first pic.




this car is slammed but needs lower offset wheels. slammed cars look very funny with the wheels all sunk in like that.

I agree 110% with Nismo. If you have fender gap, your not slammed. Slammed = tires tucked

Thread title fail. Should be "dropped Cobalt pics". It's not slammed until it had the "V-Dub stance". lol. YOU know the stance I'm talking about..

this is what it looks like currently.... with 500hp motor intact. Custom fullsize front end, 20s,custom frame, custom floorpan, custom air ride setup, shaved, custom pretty much everything. nothing was bought. this is why its on year 4 of work and still isnt driveable yet.
