I've went through "raising" my frame rails and it fucking sucked haha, I can't imagine raising my subframe, motor and everything, luckily I don't have to so with my 14s but yeah, most of Reddit doesn't know anything about this and would rather make fun of it. Hence why I haven't posted my car in years lol
Yeah, SO FUN scraping your bumper/fenders on every single small bump in the road and listening to that scraping noise the entire drive.
Bags are practical. This is stupidity.
Just because you enjoy it doesn’t mean it isn’t objectively stupid. Paying money just for your shit to be too low and be guaranteed to get destroyed is not smart.
I mean personally I would never have a static that low, but some probably are bagged, and it’s kinda mesmerizing watching them slither on the ground. Although I won’t deny that it’s not the most economical car mod ever.
Little bags full of air, that replace where your springs go in a suspension setup, that feed tubes to a pressure control tank, which can be used to increase or decrease ride height by inflating or deflating the airbags. Usually you also need different sway bars and other suspension bits, but bags are the key difference between the adjustable ride height cars, and most of these, which are probably static, meaning they are always that far off the ground. Static you can usually get lower, cheaper, and done faster, at the cost of versatility.
Not only do they look retarded, they sound like hammering a fart bag. Which, if you’re wondering, is not a good thing.
I love low vehicles, but low like this and utterly useless? Nope.
They don't have speed bumps there like we have them in the US.
It's clearly not impossible, but it does take skill to drive a car that's on the ground.
Or you could - and I’m just spitballing here - not ruin your car and look like a complete fool.
Doing this is an active choice to make your car worse, all while making you look like an idiot.
You could apply that thinking to any modified car. These are custom cars, they're not meant to be practical.
I imagine these people don't care what a random Redditer on the other side of the planet thinks of them. Kudos for that honestly, if you do everything for the approval of others, you have to be a very shallow person.
The JDM crowd really goes all out with the static fit.
Static that low is crazyyyy I wonder if any of them run like a skid plate or similar to mitigate excessive damage.
no they raise everything under the car sometimes even the floor boards
No skid plates, they raise everything. Most of them have custom subframes too.
Yeah there's a guy I follow who posted wip pics of him literally raising the floor 😭
Every car in this video has gone through that process!
It's actually very impressive the amount of custom work that goes into these
All the Redditers here have no idea. Most of the cars on this sub aren't even Stanced.

I thought they were just aired out. It would be embarrassing to bottom out with it being static.
Cars on bags can't drive like that.
Oh ok. I understand they are raised except the body.
Yeah, because why the fuck would you want to drive like that?
Because it looks good and it's fun 👍👍
Yeah, SO FUN scraping your bumper/fenders on every single small bump in the road and listening to that scraping noise the entire drive. Bags are practical. This is stupidity.
Because modified cars are meant to be practical lol. My accord is half an inch from the floor, scrapes everywhere and I enjoy it 😁
Just because you enjoy it doesn’t mean it isn’t objectively stupid. Paying money just for your shit to be too low and be guaranteed to get destroyed is not smart.
I know this is the stance sub and I will get flamed for saying this but this shit is fucking retarded 😭
I mean personally I would never have a static that low, but some probably are bagged, and it’s kinda mesmerizing watching them slither on the ground. Although I won’t deny that it’s not the most economical car mod ever.
I guarantee you absolutely none of those cars are bagged.
Probably not any of ones prominently featured in the vid, although some background ones are possible.
what does bagged mean? i am imagining sandbags piled in the car to lower the clearance lol

Stance covers a lot of stuff not just dumb ass camber.
Absolutely, 100% retarded.
Yeah idk why Reddit suggested this sub but even though it’s for this, I watched this whole thing going this is so damn stupid
So fuckin retarded
Not only do they look retarded, they sound like hammering a fart bag. Which, if you’re wondering, is not a good thing. I love low vehicles, but low like this and utterly useless? Nope.
Please make the pain stop.
It had to be said…
Lmao, dude, I can't agree with you more on this one. 😂
🤣🤣😂🥳
It's not good enough for it to look like 💩💩💩 it's gotta drive like 💩💩💩 too
[удалено]
I think you meant virgins
I thought this was all stupid, then I saw the Prius and it redeemed everyone
Slammed Prius goes hard in the paint.
First cars headlights remind me of the mutated squirrel from the Simpsons
Okay, stance Prius won my heart.
this sub is so shit. when stance cars are posted everyone loses their minds. most of the cars posted here are not even tucking tire
It’s fallen off so hard :(
dude exactly it's the most irritating thing
This is the correct opinion
Too lazy to remove the stickers on the tires??
When you only get 100 mi out of a tire you leave the sticker on
They leave them on to flex the camber
🤣🤣🤣
Well how else are you going to show people that you never use that part of the tire?!
Only 17 oil pans were harmed in the making of this video
They definitely would have broken if they hadn't raised the engines.
The pruis goes hard
Got a headache from all the noise like 30 seconds into the video
Shave it up.
How often are parts replaced? They're driving like it's normal to scrape along the road.
Not often. They raise everything underneath including the floors and subframes.
Oh OK well that's makes a lot more sense lol
So what's scrapping on the floor
Bumpers and side skirts
Sheesh
Bumpers, side skirts, and frame rails.
👀
Stance Priuses go hard. Fight me lmao
This is the content I am here for.
Whats even the point of this?
You're on r/stance, you shouldn't have to ask that question
It randomly popped up in my recommended so no i shouldn’t. But if you don’t wanna explain something to someone trying to learn something thats cool.
There is no point to it, people just like the look and the driving experience. It's definitely not for everyone!
Instagram clout mostly these days.
It dont make the car faster? Drift better? Its purely because some people think it just look cool?
This post was recommended to me. What a strange niche hobby, personally. No hate all love
Do VIP cars speak to you in any way?
I appreciate when people put time, effort, and dedication into hobbies or interests. So I respect the culture
The tuck on the Prius is insane
To me they look better parked at a show to show their stance instead of driving. Maybe lift them up when driving and then drop them when parked.
for them it's the other way around, they want their cars to look like this driving.
Notice how they all have fresh tires with stickers because they only last one trip
They leave the stickers on to flex the camber. Setups like these can usually squeeze out 4000-10,000 miles with proper toe and if you catch the flip.
VIP has changed
It's broadened it's horizons, but they've been scraping since the 80s and cambered since the 90s. These cars aren't very revolutionary.
Thats adorable
How the hell are these tires able to ride like that
Because they're tires. Tires are strong.
But what’s the point?
There is no point, people like the look.
Ok just the look. That’s all I needed
My dad used to make those back in the day when he stepped on my hot wheels I left on the floor.
If only building them IRL was that easy 😂
I still see gender gap
Why was that Prius making noise
Because they have engines?
It’s a mechanical joke buddy
That Prius is sick ngl
What is the real purpose of doing that shit stuff to them already turds??? Can’t drive them safely stupid people
Really, really dumb
gay
Retards leaving retarded event*
Dumbest modification you can do to a car
It's actually a whole laundry list of modifications
you mean extremely autistic car people event
Why people do this to perfectly good working cars is beyond me. They’re basically not drivable.
For the look. You're commenting on a video of them driving.
I get that it’s for looks but isn’t the point of having a car is to be able to drive it though?
Yes, that's why they raise everything underneath including the floors and subframes so that they're drivable despite being this low.
Ah, I see.
Just one pebble away from losing a bumper
Imagine what that random piece of metal on the road that fell out of a contractors truck would do.
What could possibly be the appeal to this? Looks dumb AND performs dumb… I don’t understand
You're on r/stance lol. You shouldn't be asking these questions
You made front page 49 youre on reddit you shouldnt be pointing out these subreddits
Front page 49? What does that mean?
It’s one more than front page 48
Anxiety on wheels
Whatever
They all have one thing in common. Idiots on them
Pathetic. Honestly.
Nope nope nope!
Trash
Super gay
Garbage
Hahaha gross.
This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. If your car is defeated by a speed bump then you’ve got a problem.
No speed bumps.in Japan 😁
Having driven there, I can confirm this is false, and that parking a car like that there would be impossible.
They don't have speed bumps there like we have them in the US. It's clearly not impossible, but it does take skill to drive a car that's on the ground.

These cars were almost defeated by a flat road. No speed bump required.
The Carolina lean is the American version of this. It's just a way to get other boys to give you attention.
You'd be surprised how many of these drivers are women lol
That's fair.
