I wasn't getting defensive and I wasn't talking about you. I'm just saying in general. I have only found a few decent looking aleros on here. Most people either have body kits or big wheels with a slight drop and they think they are low. I'm just busting balls. I'm into dragging frame and and being slammed not "low" on two inch drop springs. The roads where I'm from are as shitty as they are everywhere else and there are kids who daily drive cars that you can't even slide a penny under. Everyone has their own opinions on what they think looks good or is low but so far I have yet to see an alero this low without bags or a body kit. That's my whole reasoning behind doing what I do to my beater.
