Stance Page

By: Grey Stabler

What is stance?

Stance is a game & an art. The goal is to get the car as low as possible all while having a good fitment of the wheel & tire to the fenders of the car. Key terms to the game are "Tuck", "Poke", and "Lip Height". Having good a good fitment and set up will give you what's called "Scene Points". Added camber will also add Scene Points. This will make your car and yourself more popular in the game and noticed by other people.

Poke?

It's all about the fitment in the stance game. Poke is the amount that the tire and wheel stick out from the fenders. Too much poke can also be a bad thing and make the car look bad

Tuck?

Tuck is when the wheel is tucked under the fender to the point where part of the tire/wheel is no longer visible. Tuck is always cool, and having too much isn't always a bad thing! Especially if you still have stock wheels. If you have all tuck without any other atributes, then you might have a hard time earning Scene Points.

Lip Height?

An easy to understand principal of stance. Lip heigh would be the ability to get the bumpers (the lip especially) to lay on the ground or be super close to the ground. This is way easier for a car that's on an air ride suspension because you don't need to worry about scraping everywhere. Simply with the press of the button, your car can raise it's way out of trouble. People who run a coil-over suspenson call this cheating
