how much for HellaFlush wheels?

[alexelie]

hi, i wanted to know how much these guys with ultra flush tires pay for their setup. I know it depends on the kind of wheel and everything but roughly, how much do they spend? What kind of part do they use, stretch tire, low offset wheels, adjustable suspension, what else?

thank you

I think he means lowered to the point of making your car look stupid. (scratch)

Kinda like this: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4-xNXQYB4JE/SKWgg50gh_I/AAAAAAAAAPk/QvZHiLsEwNg/s400/hellaflush.jpg

At least, that's what Google told me. (rlaugh)

I think he's referring to a set-up like this - http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123717419

If so then there are so many variables....wheel width, offset, tire size, size of spacers needed, etc. I think your best bet is to shop around for a wheel you like and then see what will be needed to get that 'flush' look.

Hey, whatever floats your boat, dude.

 

[jred321]

you're asking how much it costs to make your car look retarded? would you like that in loonies or toonies?

so basically you want to take wide ass rims and put tires on them 2 sizes too small so you can be like the Euro crowd? sure, go ahead, blow handling and safety out the window (2thumbs)


PS: Thats not "Flush fitment" thats tire stretching....

its a fad that most people here wont approve of. but I say go for it. i mean u have a n/a Protege right?(dunno)

That's going to look fantastic on an economy sedan.

Damn, we sold the P5 too soon! Those woulda looked suh-weet on a wagon!

it sure can

I'm sorry, but when did the WRX Sti become an economy car in the same league as the Protege5?

also, the pic of the STI is not even in the same league as the Audi. The Audi is running a stretched tire(tire width is way to small for rim width), the STi is running flush fitment. Notice the rim is still covered to the edge with tire, the rim isnt hanging out making the tire look like its holding on for dear life.

Your argument is nil.

I think I understand what you mean by HellaFlush....

Please tell me if I am close.
