There are many misconceptions about lift kits. Some people say they are too expensive to purchase and install. However, lift kits, even custom lift kits, are surprisingly affordable. Another alleged issue that detractors of lift kits frequently cite is the idea that installing a lift kit will ruin the ride of your car. This is not the case if the right lift kit is used and the kit is installed properly. Finally, many people say there's no benefit to be gained from installing a lift kit. However, this is not the case. A properly installed lift kit can dramatically increase ground clearance. If you live in the area with rough roads, or if you go off-roading, frequently this increased ground clearance can be very useful.

When it comes to donk wheels, many fans believe that bigger is better. But going big can also bring about some unexpected consequences.

What do you think of when you see a Donk driving down the street? Do you think, man that car looks sick, or do you think it looks goofy? How much $$$ did it cost? Is it hard to drive? What kind of car is that? How long did that take them to do? How does he keep it is such great shape? “Probably goes to the carwash was everyday!”

When it comes to creating a donk car, image is everything. Donk owners pride themselves on making sure every square inch of their rides are kept pristine. It’s all part of the evolution from a down-on-its-luck beater to something that could be called a true work of art. The amount of care and attention given to a donk car can be seen in every aspect of the vehicle, all the way down to the wheels.

The term Donk used to refer to solely to a highly customized Mid-70s Chevrolet Impala and then any American-made full-size car from that period. But nowadays, any car on large custom wheels falls into the “Donk” category.

A true “donk” car refers specifically to 1971-1976 full-size Chevrolet cars. The term “donk” actually comes from the Chevy Impala. During these years, the Impala had a special logo that featured a leaping African antelope. To many, this jumping creature resembled a donkey, so when this particular Chevy model started gaining traction in the custom-car industry, people started referring to them as “donks.”
