Different strokes for different folks. I personally think it looks good. A little more low, and get them flush, and you'll be golden. The wheels themselves look very nice.

Good work...?

He just bought crazy wide wheels and stretched some tires over them, then cambered the f@#k out of everything to make them fit.

These kind of threads make me think a 10 year old with zero knowledge of wheel fitment just picks out a set they think looks cool, and slap them on, with no measuring.

Lol I think it looks good, he clearly said it was just a test fit... you cant expect it to look perfect when he just bought the wheels and was trying them on.

Probably isnt a good idea to stretch the tires more than that though.

That's a common misconception. People like you (I'm assuming) measure to see if a wheel will fit with a certain alignment, and no fender modification, for the sole purpose of functionality. People like him measure to see if a wheel will fit with a fender roll and pull, a certain sized tire, and at a certain camber spec. There's no less knowledge and math involved with the "hellaflush" setups than there is with functional setups. Usually it takes a greater amount of planning and calculating because setups like this play with millimeters of clearance. It's just a bit ignorant to claim that there's no knowledge involved here just because you don't like it.
