AlexBryson Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) I just want to get some opinions on donks. I'm not here to bash donk owners or anything like that, i just fail to see the reasoning behind it. I rode in a customer's 98 Ex-police interceptor Crown Vic donk and that thing was a terrible ride from a performance stand point.

AlexBryson Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 this one had 26s and it seemed like it took forever for him to stop and we felt every single bump in the road. Maybe a bad install by the local shop? Quote 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexBryson Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 From a showroom perpesctive it's beautiful. It's got a hot red with a modest chrome accent to it on 26" rims. Red interior (not like the old ford bronco red) and i even helped throw in a new set of door speakers and helped design his bass set up. It just seems though that using it as a daily driver is a waste of $$$ Quote 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJD3 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 like said above if there done right not some huge suspension/body lift that you can see right through look up the phantom caprice donk, that was built from the ground up, thats my favorite donk I didn't even like that one. WIth /very/ few exceptions, I don't like cars jacked up on big wheels. To be honest, I don't like trucks jacked up to fit big wheels. Tires? Yes. Wheels? No. There's no real purpose to it except to make the vehicle look "cool," all the while you increase wear and tear, and generally make the thing a road hazard. That said, a) I'm glad donk owners like their cars, and 2) I'm leaving this thread before it degenerates like the last one. Quote Anti Peel and Seal...lol You may be offended by the above.
