I own this Honda for about 5 years now, I bought it already modified, was in black
lacquer, lowered suspension and JDM rims. But after a year I stated to think
that it is not it, it is not my style and I was looking for something different, and as in
Poland you could feel that a new trend in tuning was appearing here and there,
Stance, I wanted that my Honda would look like these from America. Not thinking
too long I was searching for proper wide wheels and of the choice fell on the BBS.
Maybe it was a cool wheel, but in the last year the rim has become so popular that I
quickly sold it. Browsing on eBay I ran into quite a “fresh” rims, which was yet to
come out in the size I was looking for. It was supposed to come out in late winter,
but unfortunately the manufacturer screwed up and the rims came just after
the Raceism Event, on which the car was supposed to be shown for the first time.
Looking at the Honda scene 2 years ago, all the Hondas were made under JDM style,
which means on the Japanese rims and low suspension. I wanted to change it,
I wanted something different. This resulted in the fact that the car was drastically
lowered, it was quite a radical move, but necessary in this direction of tuning.
There are not many Hondas, which look like mine, but it is understandable,
because we are in Poland, we have pretty bad roads and to drive a model like mine
requires a lot of sacrifices.
In Lodz there was a Stance scene, but everyone had their own gatherings
on parking lots, shopping mall parkings etc. There wasn’t one gathering for everyone.
I wanted to change it and that is why I created stancedLodz.
I did not expect that everything would develop so quickly.
At the beginning I just wanted to be such an initiative in Lodz because it was not
there before, but I quickly realized that people in Lodz really need it,
they lacked such a website where they could all find each other.
The whole project is only six months old, but it is growing at such a rapid pace that
I hope that next year will be much better and we will reach to even more people
and we will show off on future events as one group, to demonstrate
that Lodz can do it well too.
