Stance culture focuses on aesthetic modification of vehicles to achieve a low and aggressive appearance.
This involves lowering the suspension, adjusting wheel alignment to create a negative camber, and fitting larger wheels that sit flush with or extend beyond the fenders.
Modifications are often done DIY, allowing the car owners to showcase their creativity and resourcefulness.
“There is a lot of craftsmanship behind some of these stance builds.”
