Default ***Official 2-IS Mega Flush Thread***

Ok everybody, i see people constantly trying to seek true flushness. This term needs to be taken loosly, because it comes from believe it or not japanese drift cars. When going widebody, they used crazy offsets, 3 piece wheels. which put the tire and wheel flush with the fenders. this spawned into people seeking to be the most flush look possible. some people consider to beflush when your tire is flush with the fender, or when you're tucking tire and your wheel is flushed with the fender. which involves stretching the tire.

I want to see your ISx50's and how flush you are. This will combine how low you go, and how aggressive your offsets are.

First things first i have to lay down some rules:
You cant being flush with a wheel gap
You cant be flush with bulky tires
You cant be tucked

You can tuck tire...Only tire.
You can have the tires sit flush with the fenders.
You can be on air, or slammed with coils.

I cant start the thread without pics cause that hellaLame
mine is a work in progress, im picking up a camber kit very soon. and going to go lower.

Now let the flushness begin!

I'm not sure how this thread differs much from the aggressive thread, but here's my contribution.

flush is a blend between slammed and aggressive offsets. and stretching. you can have agressive offsets, and have a wheel gap.

what you just posted is perfect. im gunna use it in the orignal post to set an example.

OP is asking for tuck tires AND poke rims... the aggressive thread is full of not tuck tires... and alot of the other cars here on 2IS are tucked but with weaksause offsets including the air guys cuz they cant even do a tsuraichi
