RAKE...

Probably started because people tried to throw a fat tire under cars not designed for it. Kind of like how wings got bigger, fart cans got bigger, stereos got obnoxious, wheels got to 25"+...

 

Once someone tries it, it catches on and won't die. :)

 

I am just replacing a couple seals, and I thought it was a good photo op.

Rake = ?

 

I can't remember for the life of me. :nono:

 

Jesus, way to make me feel old.

I guess any car has a rake. But, (at least from my generation and friends), a real "rake" was an obnoxious hood aimed at the ground stance. Usually assisted by cheap-ass air shocks and non-functional slapper bars. :)

I'll refer you to this picture... I know there is a little wheelwell gap, but I'll direct your attention to the front spoiler. :)
