Rat look’s hard to do right, when it works it really works but a near miss can look terrible.
Let em’ carry on I reckon, if it runs the handling and performance then hey thats thier issue not mine.
I do stop at dangerous modifications and if this kinda thing has an impact on safety then it should be captured within the Law and MOT type scenario.
Thing is, for a lot of these things, they are dangerous and they’re already illegal. (frinstance, tyres protruding from arches) Messing with tyres and suspension geometry for looks generally eaves a less safe car, rolling around on the edge of an overstressed tyre with crippled suspension isn’t smart. If you take a look at the condition of the tyres on street’d cars like this you’ll often find something pretty nasty.
I love it for show cars but the trouble is, people copy show cars for the road, or take pride in not being a trailer queen and drive around in something that’s not really that suited for it.
Having said that, it’s all a sliding scale, lots of mods impact on safety marginally so there’s a question of where you draw the line.
