I think you missed all of 2 pages of the thread lol it was pretty much explained already and just like every single thread goes it gets thrown off into a deeper discussion.

i read all of two pages why cant you break it down and explain it. No one did they all took pictures and said this is stance. You cant answer cause you are unsure yourself of what stance is. Please explain what stance is. The meaning, the funtionallity, the reason, how you stance, what makes it stance or not.

lol Im trying my hardest not to troll right now

Barney style=Stance is about fitment,to adjust a car's camber, ride height, and spacing, so that the sidewall of the tire sits as flush as possible with the fender/quarter panel. A common trend and style impersonated on drift and show cars alike, originating from the older Japanese domestic market.

so its not that hard to research and know what it is...
this thread just keeps getting better lol

After weeks upon weeks of studying and analyzing all this data, I came to the conclusion that I drive harder than 95% of this forum. There you have it!
Yup....

Stanced this stanced that. When i see a real stance cobalt on this forum ill let you know. I've seen hondas with cut springs that are more "stanced" then anyone on this forum. But stanced means the posture in which you stand. so everyone is technically stanced. Its how you see your car. So like I said my point of view on stance is def different then what I think stanced is ..
Josh I am sure I'm in the 5% ..

lol non stanced people telling stanced car owners there not fitted

please go tell Stance:Nation Stance/Works V2lab that lol

who the **** cares what we do, people are obviously butt hurt there losing COTM to a car thats slammed and they see no need to spend 1k on just lowering a car so they feel the need to talk ****. Everyone talks about function and out of everyone with a cobalt 5% actually track there cars and im not saying AutoX or drag. Im saying full on road course and im deff not in that %. Everyone with a Cobalt thinks they have a race car its sad.

The problem with trying to define or explain stance is that everyone hadd a different definition of stance. Some people don't even think have a flush setup is really stance. The best definition I can give for stance is simply how a car sits suspension and wheel wise. That's about as general as it gets. Typically a stanced car has the sidewalls sitting flush with the fenders, or the lip of the wheel sticks out past the tire and the wheel is cambered so that the fender sits right at the lip. Stance can be tucking tires, or having lots of poke with a stretched tire. It's so broad it's nearly impossible to define. Hell, stance can technically be a big, raked muscle car if that's how you choose to define it. There's no real automotive definition of it.
