that donk makes ur ride look even sleeker/sicker (if thats possible).
i cannot understand the appeal of those, except, "hey look at me, i'm a pimp!"
 
yeah, I guess it's pretty stupid, & I guess the only reason to build one is the "look at me" factor, but , even that being said, I was still a bit intrigued by it, one of the nicer ones I've seen. I've seen some donks at a funkmaster flex show, & really, most of them look like 13k wheels on a $400 car, put togeather by some red neck... usually rediculously higher than necissary & usually look scary to even think about driving, look like they were stick welded togeather with just scraps of metal, but this one was actually pretty nice & done decent...

got me to thinking I'd like to see one on an 03-06 fleetwood brougham, I had one of those.. they have like a very heavy lower chrome molding all around the whole lower of the car & big chrome bumpers, the whole lower half of the car is chrome & with that at waist height, & wheels like this, & tucked as much as possible... interesting at least... but no, don't think I'd ever build one, although for some reason there is something I do like about the idea for some reason :tongue:

these things can drive, but you can't drive them agressively at all or the suspension will fold over... there very frail because of the way there built, but I can picture building one the right way, & making it good enough to drive hard... all reinforced & corrected suspension geometry to get it to work well, like a bigfoot type setup...

ultimately though, I guess I'd never think to do it cause theres so much better I would want to build with the same money... but I'd build one in my shop on someone elses dime if they wanted to pay to do it :wink:
 
thats looks crazy.... hey turbocad what are the specs on ur wheels and what are u drop on looks good


wheels are 22x11 rear, 22x9.5 front, 315/30-22 rear 265/35 front, custom 3" suspension drop with rear geometry altered, another 1/2" drop comes from the tires being 1" less diameter than stock, so 3 1/2" total body drop from stock...


just finished it up... I can't begin to discribe what it rides like & feels like & how it handles... I'm so impressed with it that I don't even want to even say my opinion on it cause maybe it'll sound biased & exagerating... I might do a roadcourse track event next weekend & have a pro drive it & see his feedback, but I think it's absolutely unbelievable how well it handles & rides & drives... def the opposite of donk :)
