Looks good, I'm glad you decided to lose some stickers. Cleaner is always better. Can the Z's be easily debadged of all emblems?

are you crazy man!
Milt is into the fitment scene and doing it hellaflush style.
and i highly doubt it would attract negative attention. This car would get mad positive attention.

This style is all about negative camber wide wheels and stretched tires.

if you dont like his Z then you probably didnt like his SC.

both cars are dope!

anyways....
dope ride milt. you always amaze me with the way you make your cars look. :sweet:


It's not that I don't like his Z. I do like the car, but the things done to it could have been a bit less EXTREME. Takin' in the wheels just a tad bit, so the tires aren't stretched so bad that you are ruining the structural integrity of the sidewall and cracking the paint on the fenders, would be much more practical. Also that negative camber will be eatin' tires for breakfast lunch and dinner. I'm not sayin' I don't like EXTREME, it's just taking it too far IMO.

I agree with you 100 percent, but like what was discussed on this forum before, if you can't say something nice, dont say anything.
It's his car and his money. Let him go wild and make it the way he likes it. It may not be our cup of tea, but as you can see, he is getting lots of fans here.

Hey now, I believe I am entitled to my own opinion.

As far as the "It's his car and his money. Let him go wild and make it the way he likes it." I never stepped in his way.

Does it ever hurt to ask the question "Why?"? Maybe there is a reason or some logic behind it that I am just not aware of.

And as I stated before, aside from the platform being overdone in the mod scene, I do like the car and the concept. I guess functionality/practicality is more of an important factor of the deciding process for me, when it comes to every mod I purchase.

Again, this is just my opinion...that I am entitled to. :wink:

Well the only problem i see with this style is the possiblity of damaging your wheel over a pot hole.

People do drift with these stretched setups, so integrity is still there. People also drive on long trips with these and no problems.

As for camber. Well toe eats more rubber than camber anyways. IF your wheels are striaght ur fine.

That car wouldn't last a week on Maine roads.....way to many potholes and frost heaves here. from the back it looks like you have a broken axle.....and not very good as far as tire wear. And can you actually make turns with those front wheels??

So are you saying that if you don't like something that you shouldn't express your opinion? I think that if you happen to post pics of your ride you should be thick skinned enough to be able to take all of the "I don't like that" along with the "hella good" ....it comes with the territory. Everybody is entitled to their opinion, as long as they don't get rude.
