Tip for driving a slammed car: from now on, *all* speed bumps shall be viewed & treated as kicker ramps. If all of that time spent playing hours/days/weeks of 'graffiti' in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (OG version or bust) could translate into anything in real life, it's that you *are* Chad Muska each and every time you approach a speed bump. And make sure to look back at the speed bump afterwards, bc it'll turn either red or blue (depending on which color you were assigned at the beginning of the game, of course). If it didn't change color, better go back & hit that shit again - every point counts...don't be cocky.
I try to slow down when i see an un even road and it still tends to hit at times. It scares me because although im going 15 or less when i slwo down it sounds loud.
I swear Puerto Rico has one of the worst roads in the world. Love my country and we have a huge car community out there but god dam those roads suck balls
Juan Alejandro my skunk coils only lasted 1.5 years in Puerto Rico. Same coils lasted me almost 5 years on another car in US. Our roads are the worst and not really slammed or even lowered car friendly. Even the highways are fucked up lmao
JD Official TV I’m a broke boi so I just go with coils hahahha. Ditched that slammed mentality when I saw how the road are in comparison to the us roads. Loads and loads of random bumps on the highways that have no explanation either lmao. But hey, all the sacrifices are worth it so our cars can look decent/good
Man this took me back... I had a sudden flashback to the day I first got to drive my Nissan Hard body after I went from low to body dropped and bagged. We're talking 1997 or so when airbags weren't anywhere near as reliable as they are today, and that's saying a lot. Within the first 9 miles I was driving the airline for the bed came loose right before I was about to go over railroad tracks. Of course I got stuck on the tracks, teeter tottering, inching my way off the tracks and the stupid lights and bell came on. The arms started coming down and I went in panic mode. The dude behind me in a big ass Ford took the initiative and pushed me off with his truck. Totally smashed my tailgate but I didn't care. Thinking back I was 17 and an idiot and it really wasn't as bad as my dumb ass 17 year old self thought, but at the time I damn near shit myself. And now I miss 90s mini trucks.
God bless that fellow Tailgate damage sucks but he saved you from a total write off and potential danger. When I was 17, I tried drifting my first car on a dirt road. It ended about as well as you'd expect, front end in a ditch and rear wheels in the air. No major damage as it was a steel bodied coupe from the 80s, but still. I hadn't seen anyone drive through this country area once the whole hour I was out there, but 5 mins after my... *ahem*.. incident, a dude in a sports ute (pickup) turns up, throws a rope around my towbar and pulls me free. We shook hands and off he went, saved me an embarrassing call for help
Don’t let other drivers pressure you! I have a slammed honda prelude in a city with horrible roads. I get honked at on a near daily basis going slow up a shopping center entrance, around potholes, and just other inconveniences in the road. Its not worth having to pay 100+ dollars for a new lip or splitter. Get honked at, they don’t understand the struggle. Don’t overthink it.
this is my biggest issue with driving a low is 300 i usually try to avoid one lane roads that’s are usually fucked with fucked railroad tracks and ppl will literally ride my ass
From my slammed days I remember getting super human memory and actually memorizing every single road I drove on cuz even dips and Ruts feel terrible especially with passengers and no I wasn't on cut springs
One thing I've learned from the years of driving slammed cars... It's made me a safer driver. I always pay attention to what's on the road. Pot holes, rocks, etc. Also to drive slow over humps and bumps.
I thought it was him for a sec not even joking lmao. Never seen this guy in my life, but after watching this whole video which has no relevance in my life lmao he kinda seems like one of those guys that is a total douche but weirdly remains likable ehh so kinda like trump. And I kinda hate trump but hey hes got some charm I hate it but he does
my boyfriend turned on linus the other night and my back was turned and i said “is that alex?” and he goes “no it’s linus”. i knew i wasn’t the only one who thought this

@@Luminous.Dynamics his parents had some huge company in china and he was only working the job cause of the impact coronavirus had on his parents company, he had a camry too, sucked when he wrecked that benz tho
@@BLZPHR bc you shit so low you gotta try and limbo under them and forget about the fact that you are going up an incline of .004° and get stuck. In short
I lowered my civic a long time ago, it's still my daily today. It's not dirt nasty low but driving it has made me a way better driver in general. Lot of lessons to be learned from driving a lowered car. I can totally appreciate a video like this. Thanks!
And that is the exact reason I know it won’t be a huge problem I know every road in my city even the backroads like the back of my hand. Know most of the bad pothole locations too. Litterally the number one thing you should know with a car like that
What you say is soo true. I wonder what people think of us when they see us going on an angle over speed bumps and our own driveway. My driveway is angled a certain way, that I have to drive all the way around my neighborhood to approach my drive on the proper non destructive side lol
I used to be an absolute magician with poly when I had a slammed EF sedan. I had to park in the grass, and I ripped my front lip off a couple of times a week! I'd have someone with me, and they'd freak out. It was hilarious. My CRX isn't nearly as low, but I'm building another Integra...and well, I don't think it's getting a lip.
How to prevent you from damaging your slammed car: Get air suspension then rajse it when you are driving and then lower it wjen you are parked. No more damage
It really does help with high speed Corning/body roll by nature it seems so I wouldn't say it's pointless. There's a limit but a reasonable amount can really help..
I work for a car wash and we have rollers in az at most of our washes, and we accommodate cars as low as 3 inches , we get corvettes and and porches and slammed focus rs's as well as Hondas and some other really low cars , most the time when there is any damage to the car when they go through our wash is through human error , taping the brake , not having it in neutral, turning the wheel etc
5:12am in Miami, FL and I'm snickering laughing at how Alex kept saying (you're going to do some damage Eric at 30-35+ mph) !!! Great spokesmanship!!! Epic
Good Tips! I’ll tell you guys … I was driving a more or less slammed 2000 civic coupe for years not super slammed but lowered to about 5 inches off the ground.. half inch lower and it would have not been practical. Anyways NEVER DO THE AUTOMATIC CAR WASHES! I did it once and the dammed bar was scraping the entire length of the wash under my break pedal. Also like he said, WATCH OUT FOR PUDDLES! I had cold air intake and drove on the curb lane on a rainy day and made a big splash.. my car literally stalled out as I did that and it killed the engine. That’s why I had to get rid of the car 😢 but now I drive a 2000 prelude and I want to slam it
Love that Slammed Forester in the thumbnail. My first slammed build was a red 2001 ForesterS M/T. Bought and built it back in 2012 and drove that thing slammed down on coil overs until 2018 😂. I still see that lil wagon running around here there surprisingly
The #1 Tip: LOOK OUT FOR ROADKILL i've obliterated so many squirrels and raccoons in my miata and its like hitting a speed bump a full speed that also leaves the sent of rotting animal being bbq'd on your exhaust.
I remember seeing a roadkilled dog too late in my Datsun and he got stuck in my frame for about a mile, with no way to get it out. I carried it to underwash the next day, the guy was not pleased
Going over speed bumps/ up driveways you go side ways and full lock the other way because it slightly raises your front end you don’t keep the wheels straight
#1Tip Alex your Mom is always right! Imo you have to change the way you drive when you slam it to the ground. We need a new gps route for slammed rides. Congrates on 150K Subs.On to 200k!
Alex is on a roll today didnt know he was a comedian aswell, but he's Wright about everything he's said R.I.P to my type r lip from Japan nice $230 down the drain
Pulling into a driveway at an angle with your wheels straight is a terrible idea, unless you're not that low. Pull up perpendicular (curb parallel to your side skirt). Stop your front bumper even with the driveway. Turn your wheel to full lock and put one front wheel up the curb. 1. Your wheels at full lock will sit on the shoulders of the tires and lift your front end (that's why drift cars run so much front camber, so they sit flat at full lock) 2. Once that first wheel is up, your whole car is lifted with the exception of the wheel on the opposite corner. 3. In a perfect world, if you have the $$$ for 3 piece wheels, you should have enough to buy a 2x10 board and build some ramps.
Worth looking at but not worth daily driving. It’s not just the roads in the US. The reality is most roads in most countries are far from slammed-car-smooth-rolling worthy.
Watch out for animals and roadkill too. I hit a skunk once, in my slammed mk4 jetta. For 2 months, every time my exhaust warmed up, my car would stink like dead skunk.
Had to look this up because just ordered some BC coilovers and its gonna be my first time in a lowered car... hopefully they dont take too long to get here
I dropped by z4 half an inch during highschool and I hated driving in the city but loved how it looked parked, I had to take everything sideways lol if not I'd get stuck like a seasaw on speed bumps I can only imagine how hard it is to drive some other cars that get super low
If you're going to roll slammed static, you might as well send it so you have an excuse to change up your style every season. At least until you realize the economic superiority of air ride.
I drive a slammed static Jetta daily to commute. Yesterday I had an interview for a new job that went really well & was offered the job. The only problem is I had to leave my car on the side of a highway because the business is at the end of a 1/4 mile long dirt road filled with massive potholes everywhere. I actually attempted driving the car back there & immediately had to turn around when I realized just how deep those potholes are. Now I can't take this new job because lowered cars are life but my current boss is an asshole & well what should I do? I am installing a street shield skid plate today to cover the bottom of the engine, oil pan, trans, & subframe but still would not make it down that road without destroying the bottom of my car and fenders. FML first world problems
The only time I damage my front lip and crack oil pan when stock car,truck and suv go over big rock on the road and you cant see it until it's too late to avoid it and you cant turn left or right because there other cars beside you staring at your cool car and have no choice but to go over the damn big rocks... true story, other then that I pretty much a expert going down my driveway,go over speed bumps and void pot holes😁👍🏽
I've watched alot of your videos and this is probably one of the best car Chanel's I've ever watched! Keep it up. Love the videos. You can count on the views from me!
I live in Chicago. And in my neighborhood is a BIG, almost a foot long speed bump. Me when I first slammed my MK1 GTi went over it, cracked the oil pan, and oil spewed everywhere. I started a petition to decrease the size of those speed bumps. Now I got a slammed, static and imported 1975 Audi 50. Even lower than my MK1 that I had. it's on KW Suspension coilovers and Rotiforms. Both the MK1 that I had and the Audi 50 have rubber front lips. And their mounted pretty good. So they just flex when I leave a driveway. And after the whole thing with the MK1, both cars have/had (don't have the MK1) skid plates under them. #riptomymk1
Hit one of those by accident in my stock height Chrysler 200 at 25mph and the front scrapped on the far side so bad that I took it to the dealer for an early oil change (costs me $14 since I bought it new there!) So they could check for damage while it was on the lift!
Preach it Euro Racer. Air up and get over that garbage. Air down after and keep it moving. Don't listen to these guys talking about being a pussy. It's called doing shit the smart way and protecting your ride and investment. Not to mention making life easier for you.
I got stuck entering a delta sonic car wash in my slammed ride... ny state trooper was one car behind me also. Super cringe when they needed to pull out the wooden boards and proceeded to lift from the wheel well so I could back out 🤦🏻♂️ 🔰
When I get my car done and bagged it won’t have any aero. It’s a 2005 Cadillac deville limited. The wheels I plan on them tucking all way up in the fender wells when it’s in show mode. The wheels are also going to be painted to match the car. She’s pearl white with chroma flare. My rims are 17x7.5 or 7 even I don’t remember I have 215/50/17 on now. No tire stretch for me either. My other car has “bbs” rs style wheels front are 18/8 with 235/50/18 rears are 18x9 with 255/45/18. The rims are silver on the design of the rim with the outer polished. The car they are on is silver with a dark gray clothe top. It’s a 2005 caddy sts. I’m gonna put 225/50/18 on the fronts so they match the fitment of the rear. The front have to much sidewall now and the rear are just big enough to fit the 9 inch wide rim.
I'm lucky a new automatic car wash that opened up by my house doesn't have the wheel tunnels instead you drive onto a conveyor belt so its slammed car friendly 👍👍
Wellp... I guess im never gonna be slammed. My streets angle is so aggressive that one of my cars is practically stock height. Well lowered in the front and i scratch the front (StOCK) bumper. Well atleast wheels arent a problem... Wait they are :D

How to prevent you from damaging your slammed car:
Get air suspension then rajse it when you are driving and then lower it wjen you are parked.
No more damage
ah yes just have $4000+ dollars to spend on air suspension! /j
fuck air bags we die like real men drive it Iike you park it 😤

As someone who loves slamming and practicality, air suspension is the best invention
Here's the best tip:
Only lower your car to a few inches, slamming is always a bad idea, even if it's a track car.

Turn your wheel to full lock and put one front wheel up the curb.
1. Your wheels at full lock will sit on the shoulders of the tires and lift your front end (that's why drift cars run so much front camber, so they sit flat at full lock)
2. Once that first wheel is up, your whole car is lifted with the exception of the wheel on the opposite corner.
3. In a perfect world, if you have the $$$ for 3 piece wheels, you should have enough to buy a 2x10 board and build some ramps.
Worth looking at but not worth daily driving. It’s not just the roads in the US. The reality is most roads in most countries are far from slammed-car-smooth-rolling worthy.

I dropped by z4 half an inch during highschool and I hated driving in the city but loved how it looked parked, I had to take everything sideways lol if not I'd get stuck like a seasaw on speed bumps I can only imagine how hard it is to drive some other cars that get super low
If you're going to roll slammed static, you might as well send it so you have an excuse to change up your style every season.
At least until you realize the economic superiority of air ride.
The day Alex became a preacher.
“And fitment industry told me it was cool” best line ever. Lol
So true!!! Hahaha , you forgot don’t drive on roads you don’t have memorized at night ... it’s also the devil 👿
Ammo NYC is a great channel for learning car cleaning maintenance. All hand detailing, to help you stay away from those automatic car washes.
I drive a slammed static Jetta daily to commute. Yesterday I had an interview for a new job that went really well & was offered the job. The only problem is I had to leave my car on the side of a highway because the business is at the end of a 1/4 mile long dirt road filled with massive potholes everywhere. I actually attempted driving the car back there & immediately had to turn around when I realized just how deep those potholes are. Now I can't take this new job because lowered cars are life but my current boss is an asshole & well what should I do? I am installing a street shield skid plate today to cover the bottom of the engine, oil pan, trans, & subframe but still would not make it down that road without destroying the bottom of my car and fenders. FML first world problems
Some heavy first world probs 😂
Those wheels look AMAZING
The only time I damage my front lip and crack oil pan when stock car,truck and suv go over big rock on the road and you cant see it until it's too late to avoid it and you cant turn left or right because there other cars beside you staring at your cool car and have no choice but to go over the damn big rocks... true story, other then that I pretty much a expert going down my driveway,go over speed bumps and void pot holes😁👍🏽
It happened to me idk why there was a brick in the middle of the fucking road
d2k em2 lucky.. I got a cinder block
I hit a fucking full trash bag in that same situation and the plastic bag melted against my exhaust

The seamless transition into the Canadian accent was great 😂
😂 my '91 civic was "slammed" from the factory! Always scraping speed bumps, always hear the struts and shocks bottoming when I hit a pothole...
CRUNCH! 💀😅😂
Sameee
I've watched alot of your videos and this is probably one of the best car Chanel's I've ever watched! Keep it up. Love the videos. You can count on the views from me!
We are glad to hear that you enjoy our content!! 🙌
I'm a big fan lol
Never been this early for anything.
2:38 hey that right near my work!
My girlfriend got her smart car stuck in an automatic car wash lol. She had to call a tow truck. Now she’s afraid to go in any car wash smh. 🚗
Even the ones that don't have the track? Nothing to get stuck on in low rider friendly car washes.
Lmfao
I live in Chicago. And in my neighborhood is a BIG, almost a foot long speed bump. Me when I first slammed my MK1 GTi went over it, cracked the oil pan, and oil spewed everywhere. I started a petition to decrease the size of those speed bumps. Now I got a slammed, static and imported 1975 Audi 50. Even lower than my MK1 that I had. it's on KW Suspension coilovers and Rotiforms. Both the MK1 that I had and the Audi 50 have rubber front lips. And their mounted pretty good. So they just flex when I leave a driveway. And after the whole thing with the MK1, both cars have/had (don't have the MK1) skid plates under them. #riptomymk1
Hit one of those by accident in my stock height Chrysler 200 at 25mph and the front scrapped on the far side so bad that I took it to the dealer for an early oil change (costs me $14 since I bought it new there!) So they could check for damage while it was on the lift!
Went straight for the petition! I see you 😂
At the end of the day it’s then end of the day.
This video made me miss the static life. But bags are life
LOL this was comedy , ty for your 2cents
Full send , that’s it bro
I never expected a "that's what she said" joke from this video.
in my country you have low car or not you will get damage because we have alot of Speed bumper like literally alot
🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿
Tip #1 do bags you won’t have this issue
ey guys a pussy over here ;)
bags are for groceries
Preach it Euro Racer. Air up and get over that garbage. Air down after and keep it moving. Don't listen to these guys talking about being a pussy. It's called doing shit the smart way and protecting your ride and investment. Not to mention making life easier for you.
@Shannon Day Or just adjust ride height
@@jakeoboy67 yeah bags are for groceries lol. You can actually have a grocery getter vehicle that's slammed if you have bags
Those wheels on the E30 looks good .
keep stock wheels on your car...
I can confirm, I've gone through 6 front splitters in 1 year yessir yessir🤙
These ear-rape bass boost memes are nice
That’s not bass boost, that’s distortion.
Do a video on tip for building an old/uncommon car.
Alex is the best. Lmao “rip mgk”
I got stuck entering a delta sonic car wash in my slammed ride... ny state trooper was one car behind me also. Super cringe when they needed to pull out the wooden boards and proceeded to lift from the wheel well so I could back out 🤦🏻♂️ 🔰
lmao that clip with the camry was from my school
When I get my car done and bagged it won’t have any aero. It’s a 2005 Cadillac deville limited. The wheels I plan on them tucking all way up in the fender wells when it’s in show mode. The wheels are also going to be painted to match the car. She’s pearl white with chroma flare. My rims are 17x7.5 or 7 even I don’t remember I have 215/50/17 on now. No tire stretch for me either. My other car has “bbs” rs style wheels front are 18/8 with 235/50/18 rears are 18x9 with 255/45/18. The rims are silver on the design of the rim with the outer polished. The car they are on is silver with a dark gray clothe top. It’s a 2005 caddy sts. I’m gonna put 225/50/18 on the fronts so they match the fitment of the rear. The front have to much sidewall now and the rear are just big enough to fit the 9 inch wide rim.
Always keep a set of ramps in the truck lmao
I'm lucky a new automatic car wash that opened up by my house doesn't have the wheel tunnels instead you drive onto a conveyor belt so its slammed car friendly 👍👍
Wellp... I guess im never gonna be slammed. My streets angle is so aggressive that one of my cars is practically stock height. Well lowered in the front and i scratch the front (StOCK) bumper. Well atleast wheels arent a problem...
Wait they are :D
E30 with a little rust? Gees... i sent my jack through my frame because northeast E30s suck. But great video man
