...not really too flush but I think it is good for reference.

F - 19X8.5 (+37); I'd say another -3mm would be perfectly flush (or +34)
R - 19X9.5 (+40); I'd say another -8mm would be perfectly flush (or +32)

GL!

Do people sometimes confuse the term flush? I feel that if fenders have to be cut or rolled then obviously "some" part of the wheel/tire is beyond the fender...I have seen many pics of members rides that say they are flush when IMHO they are sticking out a little. By no means I am flush but I have seen many that do not realize that they in fact...are not flush either; i.e. sticking out.

I dont know the offsets of the wheels, stickers were off when i bought them, but are pretty conservative.

F: 8.5 +20ish
R: 9.5 +25ish

25mm Spacers all around. Front fender rolled, rear shaved.
Front tire: 215/35/19
Rear tire: 225/35/19 (HIGHLY NOT RECCOMENDED) Barely got 3,000 miles and the tires were bald and one side ripped oopen.
-2 camber up front, -2.5 rear.

The flushed picture I have. I am no long that flush though....I changed tire setups and get new coilovers and the spings are still settling.



Edit: With 245/35/19's on the rear, i can still get almost as flush by putting on a 20mm spacer and rasing the car a bit.

Have you modded your fenders yet?

We can figure out if our wheels are similar i think, just mesaure your lip sizes and ill do the same and we can compare and go from there.

Also, with 245/35 on a 9.5 my FK452's kinda cover the rim/lip of the barrel, is not that stretched, so its hard to have the wheel well sit flush on it.

Also, its really not hard to get flush, its hard to get flush while your SLAMMED. This is cause of the camber. I could easily get flush on all four corners when I raise my car.
