Generally, you would make sure your spring rate won't allow for your rim to "french kiss" your fender. What I mean by french kiss is literally smash into your fender, mangle it, and leave it looking sloppy ><. Most people do not run Tsuraichi style, they tuck their rims and tires just slightly. For those that run flush, like I said, they make sure their springs won't interfere when they hit bumps. If you're dropped, I'd hope you wouldn't be flying over bumps in the first place. Those that run hella flush also use stretched tires or negative camber for the most part to clear and avoid blowing out their fenders.

BTW, your rims look smooth man, they are great.

You're actually not hellaflush just yet. You have to be slammed to be hellaflush. IMO right now you're mexi-flush. But it looks freakin awesome though! If you slammed it, your fitment would be on point Care to share specs? PM if not LOL

+1 on that, you have to slam to be flush. im tucking most of my rear tires. and you have to have more camber, looks great tho!
