you really need the right offset and tires so they JUST slip inside the fender if compressed enough, that combo is a bit dumb, at that point just use a thinner wheel to match the tire

To each their own, I have seen some hellaflush setups where I look at them and go damn that looks great! So far I haven't found one on a Mustang though to be honest.

I'm running D2rs coilovers, no rear bump stops, 18x10 et+22 rear with 225/45s stretched, I'll have been pictures up soon, getting a photo shoot done in a few days

Sorry man, but that's just a silly setup. Buy an old civic or corolla if you want to do that crap. Don't stain an American icon. What's next, a 5 foot high spoiler, fart can and scratch-n-sniff stickers?

That's actually a really cool pic, bro, but it doesn't change anything I said. It's fine if you want to do that type of thing, just do it with a different car. Its like me taking a supra and putting a 4" lift and 40" mudders on it.

"hella flush" = no wheel gap, i can see wheel gap there even if they are 20s. but i like my 18s because it means "more low"

I don't really consider mine slammed but it drags on a lot of shit. Headers made it worse.

I had about 1-1/2" between the headers and the pavement.

255/45-18 front
275/40-18 rear

Do you think that you notice a difference in height between the front and rear tires? Reason I ask is that I did a size compare and the 255/45-18 is about 1/2" taller than the 275/40. A 245/45 would have been an even match height-wise.

IMO, this is hella flush done right on a stang, (already posted in here but apparently people forgot).

That car is on 18's and in my opinion looks good but..... yes I said but....

He needs a larger wheel for one to get rid of the bubble side wall. Ditch that and go to a more square sidewall that's perfect with the fender or a wider rear wheel. Now, once he's sitting on 20's and slammed where he is at he needs to shave the mounting surface of that rear wheel a few mm to fit everything just inside his rear fenders. He sticks out too far right now. A good bump and he's looking at a few grand in body work.

Besides that the car looks great.

Yes, I can see it but most people don't notice it.
