What is this retarded trend of droping the car to the floor? It looks silly. Almost as silly as the 13inch daytons on the low rider. I understand a 2-3 inch drop with good rim setup, but I droping it to the floor just doesnt register.

The cars are equipped with air ride suspensions. So they have the ability to go low or high...

The pics are taken with the suspension low to show the range. You gotta respect the flexibility of these systems. I can go from tucking in my wheels to at least 4 inches above stock height.

Plus they look killer!

I absolutely respect the amount of technology and work done to get it to work. I just dont understand whats hot about the car being on the floor.
From a functional point of view it serves no purpose. I guess its a matter of taste, I am just trying to find out where it came from.

...which seems to be a general answer for alot of things in life. Different strokes for different folks. I personally luv the VIP/EXE style of modifying cars. ...just wish I could turn that passion towards something more appreciating...like owning /modifying a house or something.
