so i just finished doing my five lug swap and looking into getting an alignment done.But i have always been curious on how some other cars have that ''Wheel stance'' where the wheels look angled when on the ground..This might sound dum to some of you,but do they get that stance from a camber kit or from a custom alignment?

I will try to post up a picture for those who dont get what im sayin.....

open to any help/suggestions..:peace:

You talking about negative camber?

Like this?

It happens naturally when you lower your car but with a camber kit, you can adjust the degree of camber you want.

yes thats what i meant...now this can only be done with a camber kit?

Im pretty sure when i bought my car the guy said he had one already installed .but i cant remeber if it was on the front or rear.. I guess ill have to look on google to see what they look like and then check it out on ma car....bu thanks thats what i meant but not so much like i that picture..

camber happens when you lower the car. it goes to about -3 naturally if youre slammed. if you want more than that then youll need a camber kit. to get an aggressive stance youll also have to work with offset and width of wheels too. if you want to see -3 search for pics of my car. i have -2 up front and -3 in the back

Find out the width of your wheels.
Run a tire that is a very skinny width to cause tire stretch.
Add 10-20mm spacers
Roll and pull fenders
Lower car another inch and a half
=
The look of "Hellaflush" (Stance)

Or

Get a more aggressive wheel in the low 20's offset, roll and pull fenders, skinny tire for maximum tire stretch and lower your car more.
