Not an offset fail, but this gem was a local car show. Too bad I didn't take any pictures of the sweet system he had going on as well. Had like 6 6x9s and a sub box with a couple 8"s and some cone tweeters.

Some people think that's cool. I've seen it done on fbodies, mustangs, trucks, you name it.

But, in reality, it isn't cool, it's retarded.

I think we are the fools with the lowered cars
because he doesn't have to slow down going
over any railroad tracks or speed bumps.
