This is the strangest photo angle I've ever seen. Where's that front wheel running off to? It looks like an anteater licking the floor.

Here is also another real life example of stance:Ok... not to troll too much but here is a real life example of STANCE:
STANCE is all about wheel gap, offset, etc...
Max negative camber just looks ridiculous IMHO...
Your overall photo composition would be sick if it wasn't so distracting with the negative camber...

I do have a clue you moron. Making a car hellaflush or having that stupid "STANCE OMGZZZZ" bullspit is dumb. It just makes the car useless. Sure, run flush wheels, it looks cool, but "stance" is just how something sits, or how something stands, like a person.Not even worth mocking.... No clue at all...

That's still zero camber on the rear axle itself. The wheel might have a very small amount of camber, but it's still 90 degrees to the axle.
Again not trying to start a flame war... If you don't know what stance (it's an automotive car culture kind of thing... clearly you don't have any culture) is then please go to someone elses thread. If you noticed, I was trying to help someone out so that they realize that that kind of camber is useless as far as racing physics are concerned... The rest of the car / photo was pretty good.
I can appreciate F1, Formula D, hellaflush, VIP, and even NASCAR. You clearly don't have much of a clue about suspension setups (Beyond what a live rear axle is).
NASCAR uses a floating rear hub type assembly and they often run +/- 2 or more degrees of camber depending on the track, and on road courses you can clearly see that both front and rear are running negative camber setups. Maybe if you CONTRIBUTED you would actually learn something...
Just a thought.

Not necessarily. Any car can have stance. Making your wheels sit flush is just one way of doing it.
For example, this has stance:
As does this:
And these:
Even this has loads of stance about it.
To me, stance is similar to presence
Anyway, we're kinda off topic a bit now. Here's some (almost)stance for you:

Agreed 👍
I was doing my best to stay "on" topic... Just wanted to point out that a car with stance (or presence - I'm going to use that again BTW) should definitely not have maximum "GT5" negative camber... IMO everything else about the OP's car was pretty smooth for a Fiat 500!

Whatever you say.
You act as if I don't have first hand experience working on NASCAR stockcars.
First hand experience working on NASCAR... posting in a gtplanet forum... and picking on random people's picutres...
Is it even worth responding to?
Oh and here is an example of how they (read: NASCAR) get plenty of negative camber on the rear axle:

Ummmm yes. You do realize there's more to cars than v8's and solid rear axles right?
Look, not trying to insult, but you leave a lot of negative comments and back up some of your statements with bogus facts. I live in central Ohio and see plenty of all types of racing and have at least second hand knowledge from the people that do it. I personally race SCCA solo II and have worked on automobiles since I could hold a tool. I was also taught to play well with others and stick up for those that are being picked on.
My point is that this is a forum and, while I'm not a moderator, the idea is to contribute and if you have an opinion - go ahead and share it - but do so with a little respect (especially if its not your "thing").
EDIT: I believe that is the All American series - right?

This might be a stretch, but at the grassroots level this whole stance, drifting, whatever thing actually employs a lot of the junk yard / DIY ingenuity that you guys use every weekend.
Like you, I just don't always get it... But hey, after all it is just a game.

What happened to this thread?! I thought it was about stanced out cars, not about ****** nascars?!

What he said ^^
Wheels don't have to have 'poke' to be stanced. They can have 'tuck' also.

I don't get the 'stance' crap, 'Stance' is just a term used, it's not even the correct term. Stance is such a vague word that someone saying my car has 'stance' can be taken in plenty of ways. Every car has stance. What KIND of stance is the difference. So maybe this thread should be, got 'Tucked' stance? Or something along those lines. Not everyone is going to get it when they see 'gotstance'.

I think it's safe to say if you know what the title means you know what's in this thread, if you don't know, you can figure it out
