Ive seen lowriders in the magazine with big engraved blowers coming out of the hood of the car is that so different than a big tach in a honda.




what about this lowrider or hotrod. If you took off the big rims and bolt some big knockoffs the same size is it a lowrider?

There will always be grey area but if this car were to put wires on it would be more with the flow of a lowrider. Aside from the big ass blower it should have 13's on it. On a side note i wonder if the front of that car was switched or just the rear.

Same car but with a rake (back higher) and wires would still be a hotrod to me. So basically it all comes down to the overall appearance of the car. No one thing will make it a lowrider.
