- Hey guys, what's going on? It's Alex.
(laughing)
- Sorry, I had the giggles.
- I'm interviewing a child.
Hey guys, what's goin on?
it's Alex from Fitment Industries.
- And I'm Jasper from Fitment Industries.
- And decided today--
(blowing raspberry)
and today, we decided we were gonna ask Jasper
ten questions about well, static stance cars.
He owns a static stance car. What do you own?
- I, a 1997 BMW 328i.
- So we decided we gonna title this
Ten Questions for a Static Stance Guy.
And Jasper doesn't know the questions
which is gonna be interesting so we're gonna
just start it off.
Are you ready?
- Yeah
- Are you sure? - Yeah.
- Okay, so my first is why?
Why did you do it?
Why--
- Is it a crime? When people ask me--
- [Alex] Was putting spinners on a car a crime?
- That's baller.
Anyway, normally when people ask me
my main argument, I like to party.
- Okay. So is that a real answer--
- So, no.
I would say it's cause like aesthetically,
is a very good looking decision.
- [Alex] Sure.
- To most people.
- [Alex] To most.
- To most.
Not to everyone.
- So like most, could you give us a percentage
of the car community that would be like
'I like that?'
Like the only sentence is, 'I like that.'
Not, 'I'm not a stance guy, but I like that.'
It's just I like that.
- I'm gonna like safely say like
probably 75%.
Which is a C.
- [IAlex] Next question that we have,
what are you doing with your hands?
- Nothing.
- Alright, it's cool.
Where did you get the idea from?
- To be honest, I think because of today,
I'd say the internet has been like
probably one of the biggest inspirations.
I didn't build my car for the internet,
but it was definitely a big inspiration.
- Alright, okay, cool.
So would you say this kind of ties in
back to the first question?
Would you say most people like it?
Or most people hate it?
- I dunno, that's tough.
It all depends where you live, I guess,
and like the people you hang out with.
All the people I hang out with love it.
I would say most people like it, in general.
- Just generically?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- I would say so in consent--content...
- Consensus.
- Consensus, right.
(laughing)
- Yeah, I would say most people like it
only cause like a lowered car will always look good.
- Sure.
So what are the specs on your car?
- The specs on my car,
so the wide body kit is a 45mm over fender kit
from Felony Form.
But then the wheels are 17 by 10, negative three.
And specifically if you wanna talk about camber as well,
I just got my alignment.
So I have negative 7.2 in the front
and negative 6.4 in the rear.
- [Alex] Sure.
- Did your mom pay for your second alignment?
- Nope.
- Third alignment? - Nope.
- First alignment?
- Nope. - Damn.
- Cause I didn't get a first alignment, remember?
I couldn't get it on the rack.
- Why couldn't they get it on the rack?
- Cause it was too low.
(laughing)
Yeah.
- How many tires have you blown?
- So.
(laughing)
That's tough because I had a bad alignment prior.
- Oh.
- So, right.
- So it has nothing to do with the stretch?
- No. - Okay.
Continue on what the issues were.
- So first off, my tires aren't even used
from my previous set up.
So one of them de-laminated because it was low psi
and the bead wasn't properly sitting,
which is currently actually happening to another one,
and the tread stopped that dumb phase. (both laughing)
- And it's like, almost bald as well.
- [Alex] Why?
- But that was because it pulled to the right so hard
that it was literally because of the alignment.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
And then, another one is de-beaded, but that's not like
going through a new tire so I'd say two, almost.
- Two and a half? - Two and a half, I'd say.
Because I have to buy another one
but that's because --
- That's not because of the stance.
- No.
- Three tires, no stance?
- No.
- [Alex] Are you confident?
- Yep. Very, yep.
- [Alex] Okay, sure.
How many Instagram followers have you gained since
you made your wheels slanty?
- A hundred.
- Really? - Yeah.
- What the?
(Jasper laughing)
I thought that was just what you did.
- No. People just like me.
(Alex laughing)
- What are you doing with your nose?
Alright so, originally a multi-piece wheel
was meant to make wheels fit in the fender.
- Right.
- So why did you --
Why are you making wheels
not fit? - They fit, no they fit.
- Not properly.
- They fit with work.
- With extensive modification.
- With extensive modification, right.
So what was the question?
- So you took the function out of a multi-piece wheel.
- Right.
- For what reason?
- Cause multi-piece wheels are baller.
That's pretty much my whole case.
- Okay. Do you think stance is a fad that will die?
- I don't think so.
I think lowering your car and tampering your car
is always gonna be a thing because
you look back at old 90's race cars, even when they used
E36's, Mercedes 190's, stuff like that,
they still had a functional camber, but it was still camber.
And the whole point of lowering your car is to lower
the center of gravity and when you have a super stiff
setup, it's also for no body roll.
I think it'll always be a thing.
- That's a pretty good reason, I agree with that.
I don't think it's a fad at all.
- I think it's benefiting. It's more extreme nowadays.
- Yeah, okay.
So when people tell you that your car has no function
anymore because of what you did to it,
what do you tell those people?
- So it's not an M3, so that's already like
the function is not the best thing you could buy
for like my car.
I mean it is a 2.8 so it's arguably the next best thing,
as in it's probably the biggest thing you could buy
that isn't an M3.
And it's a 90's car, it's a 90's convertible,
so it's not like it's a brand new Lamborghini
that I'm slamming and getting rid of some camber.
- So I'm just wondering how many items of Supreme do you get
per one degree of camber that you achieve on your car?
- Four.
- Four? - Four.
- Is that where you got the hat?
- Yeah, I actually only own the hat.
- I don't believe you.
- No you're right, I own a shirt and a hat.
- Okay so final question, what is your dream car?
- My dream car? Probably a Mercedes 190 E Evo II.
- [Alex] Okay.
- So it's like the nice flared out
boys with the big wing.
I just think it's always been one of the best-looking cars
and I don't know, I'd probably still slam it,
but obviously because it's a dream car so whatever.
And if I have enough money to buy one
I don't care what people say.
- Cool.
- But yeah, it'd be fun I think.
- Awesome, well those are our 10 questions for
Static-Stance-Guy, aka Jasper.
I thought he did pretty good.
So we are going to do another version of this
where we're gonna ask me questions
which is gonna be interesting.
