I grew up in Southern California and I remember lowriders with hydraulics since I was a little kid and Im 33 now. Im wondering because until about 10 years ago I never heard of any lowriding outside of the West Coast except for parts of the SouthWest like Arizona, New Mexico, places like that.
I remember going to the Christmas parade and all the impalas hitting switches. Being that my dad was stationed in Long Beach in the 70's I was fortunate to grow up around it. I know its a world wide thing now but I never really seen anybody rolling on D's down south until now. Especially traditional lowrider 13"s 14"s with skinny white walls.
Anyways, just wondering.

Man my first car was an 81 caddy coupe. It had 3 pumps and white guts etc... that was like 6 years ago. And people were still on top of me then. I live in Tampa Bay so you do the math
