    I like 40s, i went from 45s to 40s to 35s..... 45s too big, 35s look fantastic but sacrifice comfort, 40s just right.

    Probably, but my rear camber kit was adjusted all the way in & the front was adjusted enough to have them clear the fenders when i drove straight, but turning was a different story & i got tired of hearing them rub.... Im sure if the car would have been aligned then they could have adjusted everything right.... Oh well, now im sitting hella'flush & didnt have to roll/pull the fenders anymore....

    I have to disagree. I think they look worse. I like the first set much better and it looks like they had less camber. Either way, hellaflush with massive camber issues is gay.

    You asked to live that hellaflush life! Than you can't complain about rubbing. U needed a smaller tire on those to fit. It would have been nice to have it right with the original wheels, I liked the style a lot better.

    Tire was fine in size just didnt feel like rolling & pulling my fenders more, so decided to run a less aggressive offset of +15 & sit flush with not as much camber as opposed to the 0 i had & running a super stretched was not even considered being on them since its dd, atl roads suck.... Im happy with my decision & fitment....

    you cant title the thread "hellaflush" and be against stretch tire... and a 195 on a 8" tire is far from stretched!! If you scared say you scared!!! lol

    I got the feeling that you gave up on the quest to make those wheels fit properly, instead of going the extra mile to reach your hellaflush dreams!!!

    either way your happy now.

    Im happy now, yeah because im sitting flush & not poking & the 195/45 i had are classified as a mild stretch.... Anyways im looking to get 205/40's or 195/40's to give me that extra mild stretch on my current wheels....

    Happy New Year BTW
