I think it makes him happy that others are unhappy with his car.

I care because it is very unsafe.
The suspension of the car is not designed for loads like this.
If he were cruising on the highway with wheels with that much camber and hits a pot hole there is a very large chance that is will break the rear suspension and cause an accident.

There is properly flushed cars ( as seen above on the 8th gen civic) but this one is just stupid IMO.

I love the look of a car that is slammed beyond what seems usable, they look great but there is a point where it becomes stupid and that is when you are compromising safety of yourself or others for a cool look.

yessir. If you look closely he hits a very small bump and loses control. That camber and stretched tires are a recipe for disaster.

Someone needs to fit little tiny 8 inch aircraft wheels or whatever inside the dish of another 20" wheel so the 20" wheel can sit flat like the Back to the Future Deloren when it starts to fly

I don't see how this is surprising... I mean....

step 1) buy family economy car as a "show car"
step 2) put muffler on it that amplifies the noise and makes it sound like shit
step 3) screw up ride with shitty suspension
step 4) kick wheels out at a ridiculous angle so they bust off at the first pothole.

step 5) still get no pussy

Oh yeah, totally, right? His car has a 99.999% chance of exploding at the parking lot.

honestly i use to make fun of these guys but after a while i started to realize they're not much different from me. people are always asking why im constantly taking my car apart and putting it back together and to be honest, its 1/2 breaking, maintenance and trying to squeeze another second out of it to be faster than the other guy. the other 1/2 is just because i have nothing better to do with my spare time that i enjoy, theres really no reward at the end of the tunnel.

i know guys that install huge turbos and make 400 whp just to park their cars in the garage or show up at meets
guys who buy r comp and daily it because its badass
guys who wax their cars every other month
guys who tie on drift charms, just because (fwd, awd, rwd, mr2s all the same)
guys who polish their valve covers and have ridiculously clean engine bays

everyones got a taste, theres really no point in purposely pointing out why somethings bad, all my coworkers constantly ask me whats the point, why are you wasting your life away on it... gets a bit annoying after a while but they're right

P.S. i think we're all a bit guilty of hellaflushing to a certain degree, i dont need to be this height... but i did because i thought it looked cool

i think hellaflush is different. they have stupid clearance and overall make the road a shittier place to drive on. Can you imagine if you were behind one of these cars at a speed bump? waste everyone's time.
