IMO, if the wheel and tire setup involves fender mods they are aggressive.

Far from actually. Their quality isn't to much above HRE (which we all know is a joke for what you pay) and their customer service is by far the worst to deal with. Ive got a couple of buds that purchased their wheels for their cars and one set came in bad. It took him 4mos to get them to replace them.

IForged IMO =

I know its a highly modified double wishbone but still the way that the tire contacts the ground is the same. negative camber is used for performance not just for aesthetics.

Haha, if you read what I said then you will see that it is not a comparison of 2 totally different cars but the principles behind them. funny guy.

Like jjm4life said on to some cars with the agressive wheels.

nice cars from TF*
Advan RGII
18x9 +9 front
18x9 +24 rear






Enkei RPF1 [powdercoat white]
17x9 +22 front
17x9 +22 rear

why cant people leave this thread alone for the people that actually appreciate the style?
Yeah, that's exactly what I do...either that, or I actually get my car out to an autocross every weekend during the season. There are those on here who actually use these cars for what they were designed for

*gasp* Race cars run lots of negative camber?! I had no idea! It's not like I've been an avid sports car racing fan for the last six years or anything!

Firstly, the camber in your photoshop is a whole hell of a lot more than any of the pics you posted. Secondly, camber is something that needs to be individually adjusted for each application and depends on a huge set of variables. Thirdly, race cars do it for performance, where you clearly only care about the aesthetics.

My earlier comment was specifically referencing people who base their camber and toe settings based only on wanting to fit a certain size wheel solely for visual appeal.
