but it isnt..its a style of modifying your car and this style has been around since wheel companies began making two piece wheels and some before that...
oh yeah....reference the 70/80's japanese cars to see that the style has been around for a while..
it has only recently seen the "mainstream" lately and now is becoming "trendy" to do it...however..to 98% of the enthusiants who do it will agree that we like the look/style/stance of it... in any case it isnt even being super cool/jdm/hellaflush....i think its more of....vehicles look better with proper fitting wheels, dont have to be hellaflush/poked, but why run a 30 offset when you can get a 10 ?

i guess that would make sense to some if this was actually a "trend"..

I'm all about some good wheel fitment, but not at the expense of having to sacrifice my car's handling. You rarely see anyone with a crazy stance racing, drifting, dragging, or whatever. From whatever I see, its mostly just about the meets and get togethers, which is totally cool as long as there is no misinformation about the functionality of it.
I'm sure that is considered hating on by the people who run Hellaflush, but I honestly don't get it. My speculation is that since most people in Cali can't get away with running ridiculous engine modifications, they resort to aesthetic stuff that they won't get nabbed for.
