Well, I have to say anhkiet's is more flush than yours, and he certainly doesn't have that Grand Canyon-sized gap in his fender wells.

Nice clean setup. What size tires do you have? Are you dropped? Also, what are the offsets (+30?) in the rear? I couldn't tell from the boxes in the pictures?

tire sidewall protruding past the edge of your fender edges is not "flush".

Z04, actually my sidewall is pretty flush with the fenders and quarters, just not flush with rear bumper, but it really doesnt matter anyway does it ? lame

thanks to Z-U-later for that reference pic, i was too lazy to see what his impression of "flush" was.

set-up: 245/275 HTR III/Falken 452, sprint springs, 25mm spacers fr&r, 8.5 +25 fr, 9.5 +30 r.

to answer you both:
my comment was based off of the pictures provided, not my "impression of what flushed" is or is not. you want you wheels to stick out like that, fine by me. personally it looks stupid to put spacers on a wheel that does not even require or need them but hey, at least i'm not the one that is going to have crappy performance. have a good one

To each his own. I think it looks stupid to put those hideous headlight covers on, considering they are ugly as hell and don't even fit *FLUSH* on the headlight .

I usually wouldn't say anything, but since you're being an *** to people I felt it was my duty.

again, z-u-later thought it would be cute to drag up an old picture and attempt to flame someone for an observation. too bad you had to stoop to his level and respond the way he did instead of saying nothing.

Me, flaming? You're the one who criticized anhkiet's setup, and I just responded with the fact that you don't know what you're talking about in regards to what is "flush." You wanted to be sarcastic as usual, and when I called you out, you portrayed yourself as the "victim!" Quit whining and consider yourself,

again, a simple observation is not criticism. if i were to criticize i would have gone at it a bit worse, unlike your lame attempt to "call someone out". only "victim" here is the rest of the forum that thinks they are reading about NISMO wheels (BTW, do you even own a set?) and instead reading how you got this personal grudge against me and felt compelled to try and call me out. maybe you should read closer in the forum TOU about personal attacks. do not bother to reply because it will jsut be another post like the one above. so please, allow this thread to go back on topic

/back to ignore

Yeah, I responded above with a "simple observation" also. Is that a problem?

NOTE TO MYSELF: Let's see if he ignores this post like he claims he will.
