there are three fundamentals (well that the owners of garson, junction produce, and mode parfume told me at toyo auto salon)
Low
Fitment
Camber
without those three items, your not truely within the VIp style "parameters i guess"
VIp is a popularity contest on who can spend the most, be the most aggressive, or for somet he cleanest
I chose the old school huge wheels and camber route
i mena, i could have kept some 10j -5 or so wheels and had maybe -5 or 6 * of camber BUT i chose to do stuff out of hte norm for most gaijin, and go old school.
