Highway Shots - [20PICS-14MB]

decided to take highway shots of my car. i was riding in my friends spec-v and my other friend was driving my car. this is my first time doing this sort of shooting so the quality is nothing spectacular and hosting them on photobucket seems to lower the picture quality. no editing other than resizing has been done. any comments are welcome, and as always enjoy the photos.

I like the stance.. How does the road treat the ride? Do you ever bottom out.

You need wider wheels and better offsets, ASAP...

Stance is killer though...

Damn, your car is DUMPED! Very nice stance. I agree with Fast1one though, you need lower offsets.

Very neat wheel/drop combo, I really like the way it looks... even with the lower offset... It's original, but good looking also.

If you set the exposure time for a few seconds and found a way to steady the camera well you could get some really cool in motion shots. Like the one you have.

why do people say "low offset" to designate sunken-in wheels? More offset pushes the wheels into the car, less offset pushes the wheels out of the fenders. A zero offset wheel would make a maxima look like an open wheeled racer.

Very clean car, love the stance. I'm really feeling the picture where you can see the motion of the wheels!

+1 on the stance. I love it, but I don't think I would ever do that personally. The roads here in Seattle would murder the car.

thanks for the comments, everyone. i'm lowered on ksports. as for the wheels, i got them for free so i'm not concerned about the offsets. i know the shots look like i'm standing still. i was too caught up in the excitement of hanging out my friend's window to adjust the settings to perfect. i'm going to be taking some better ones real soon, when i am not pressed for time.

Very nice job Brian. Looks sick.
You gotta turn down your shutter speed, like someone above said, your car looks like its standing still. Lower the speed and follow the car and then take the shot, the background should be blurred.

I think the tails match well since he has dark tints. Is your car sunlit sand? Also what muffler do you have?

you're lowered on the same thing as me, with a drop like that do you find yourself going through axles more than you should, cause i do n my drop looks the same if not yours is lower and im on 6 axles in 9 months

i didn't like the color at first, but after a while i realized there weren't a lot of them out there...modded atleast. i also never fully finished what i had planned for it because i'm still looking to get 2nd gen GS.

as for the axles, i got em from Raxles.
