This is why you're getting turned down, if I owned a shop I wouldn't do it either.

Dope status vs. Practicality

I think the stretched tire, deep dish, wheel camber look is bad ass....for a car that's sitting still, or in a picture. I for one could never do that, not with the way I drive around Richmond...esp. on I-64 or Broad St. But even seeing a car with "that" type of setup going down the road looks rather painful, so easy to fuck a rim up!
