check instagram, as that's more of the place to find that kind of set up.

as most of us guys on this site prefer our rides with meaty tires and stock camber



probably dont even have to look far on instagram.....hashtags......

What does "added camber" mean. Do you mean is anyone slammed with a lot of negative camber in the rear?

I'm getting the impression on these boards that the 4G is getting old enough that parents are gifting the car to their kids haha

Funny you guys say kids when there are plenty of adults that do the same thing. It's a trendy and people follow no matter their ago.

OP I'm guess you're talking about the stanced look with excessive camber. Like mentioned above most of the members don't run. Crazy camber. Even I'm aggressive but still corrected my camber. Check out Kibbles thread. He was running a lot of negative camber in the rear lowered. It was too much for him though, he ended up pulling his rear fenders and correcting it. It honestly doesn't flow right unless you're running the same in the front.

for the record

i'm 23 years of age and I bought the TL with my own money, my own credit line ( 720 at the time of purchase), all on my own without any help from parents.

i run a business in SJ CA. I fix Android phones; Malik's Phone Repair - Home

nobody gifted me the car... i'm just young enough to appreciate that aggressive negative camber look and old enough to afford it Lol

The most I seen on here is -3.5 in the back and I have that actually. There was a guy on here with a white one HELLA camber out but he did fix it up. Do you have the 3.5 or the 3.7?

lol no one mentioned your ability to purchase a car.

when i say 'kids' i mean that it's a trend that most of us on this website dont like.
it's kiddy.


sure, some adults do it.....butt



again, you're better off looking at facebook and instagram, as you can always find the "trendy" stuff on there.

^^^ Couldn't agree more! I was at -3.5 in the rear for a year after only dropping by 1.25" and it drove me nuts. I've fallen in love with her all over again now that it's corrected (well close to it at -1.5...matches front).

I feel I'm in the minority though on the 4G side when it comes to the beefy tire setup. I have 255 series tires on 8.5" wide wheels but it seems most others have those on 10.5" wide wheels. I love the look and slightly added grip though!
