Donk is the name of the style when you lift a car or truck to put very large wheels under it..

Re: All these lowered trucks ??

Some of you guys sound just like our parents did as we were growing up..lol But I will admit that there is a difference between tastefulness and just plain overboard..lol How much is too much? Me..well I'm from the old school now..I guess...lol Where everything had to have 30's and vouges..(meaning 30 spokes cragars rims)

Re: All these lowered trucks ??

i think theirs a ton of things to do to a truck thats worse than lowering one.
easy to go back to stock, not that anybody knows, its never been done.
makes the vehicle corner and stop better. i think they look better to.

They need to fix that as the Donk Epidemic has moved over to the imports as well....

Actually,you`re not slow,you`re too smart.You see,Donk started off as these folk`s is name for an Impala.These urban types believe the impala is the same type animal as a donkey.I guess a deer or antelope are donkeys too.Pretty confused bunch.They also think a vehicle is for standing around rather than drive.
I say start the next trend in donkland with wheels of different geometric shapes,like octagons and triangles...maybe trapezoids?
Or,why not widen the axles while they`re at it and come out with senny foes or 82s?The car can be lowered with the wheels to the outside of the body,like a Mississippi river steamboat.
