You do see that it has almost zero camber?

Not all cars look good with camber, not all cars can do the vip scene. Have you ever seen a VIP style Lexus IS-F? NO.

You do know that you can't adjust camber on a straight axle, right? Hence why I ran with 'almost no camber' on the Maxima.

For reference, I am more of a minimalist when it comes to that.
THIS is my ideal:

Very nice.

He started the thread, and it read as though he was looking for opinions on his car, even saying he doesn't mind that some don't like it. However, to those who responded negatively, he's gone on to try and try and try to convince us that we should like it, or at least accept it since it's a "style". In fact, he also used the 'since others like it you should too' type of argument, which is ridiculous reasoning. In case I wasn't obvious before, in my eyes, a car sitting like this is both really, really silly looking, and not functional.
I've enjoyed the heated debate, and even though he's persistent, he seems to take the neg comments well.

Taken from the 2nd sentence in my 1st post...

"Anyhow, lots of people didn't like how it looked and I still don't mind if people don't, just thought I'd share."

Now, can you tell me how I asked for opinions? I don't mind if people comment, it's a known people will..whether they are negative or positive comments.

And again, can you please tell me how I was trying to CONVINCE people to like it? All I tried to do was get people to understand that it's a certain style and this is how it's applied. I never forced anyone to like it, I straight out said people may not like it, and that's cool, but understand it's a style, a taste, and we all have different tastes.

Thanks man..here's some updates from today....

My setup is done for the most part. Custom Battle Version camber arms in the rear, Battle Version toe arms, and customized Cusco front upper A arms. I'm still not happy with the stance in the front, but that will change soon. Gonna throw a 25mm spacer on and camber another 1.5 degrees so it matches the rear more. I'll do it when I got the money to do some more custom work. I'll also work on fixing up the rear fender....enough talk, time for specs and pics.

Work Variazna T1S. 20x9.5 -12 (with 15mm spacer) and 20.10.5 +0 (NO spacer). Tires are 225/35 all around. Now that I have more fender room in the rear I'll step it up to a 235/35 and the fronts will be replaced with a 215/35. Front camber is -4.7 and rear camber is -7.5.
