Overall this GS is a clean mod, except the tire setup!?!

Sorry, but are you low in cash; cannot afford new set of tires!?! Current tires are stretched and barely fit on the wheels!?!

Everyone has different in taste, maybe you did that on purpose, but not my cup of tea...sorry!

i thought vip style is the wheels to be flush with the fender well?

not my cup of tea (the wheels sticking out so far past the fender), but to each his own. props to the owner for being unique.

WOW listen to all that ... Well you have to understand that He has done what none else in the states has .. and that fitting a 19x12 -25 on the rear ...

I think he is the one who has motivated me to push for crazier offsets ..

Its not gonna be alot of people thing to do,but Its more of the most extreme on the boards .. you have a mix group but for people that have posted in there and the person who made the thread you guys need to search each topic ... its a repost

Props to Shane ! Limitless Motorsports woot woot

Btw this will be closed by a Mod I bet

Congrats to Shane for pushing the envelope, and not being a sucker to what others describe as "proper fitment".

It's hard to think for yourself these days...

WOOT!! cool post!

i understand how ppl say the car is too crazy, and too extreme but i dont understand how a car can be TOO LOW?!

i am always interested in hearing what kind of love/hate there is for what i have done to my second gen GS.

woot... long live the GS!!

FYI...not everyone into VIP is into extreme camber...just cause Shane has done it, doesn't mean everyone into VIP style is going to stuff a 19x45 wheel with -450mm offset into their wheel wells and camber it 90 degrees to out do him....so please don't assume that we all will...

props to him for accomplishing what he set out to do...
