HellaFlush MS6 pics - finished - pics updated 1st post

Finished the tweaking and washed her up.

BC Coilovers
19x9.5 +25 Privat Reserv
225/35/19 Nankang NS-II
~ -2*f / -3.5*r







------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally mounted my 19x9.5 +25 wheels on the car. Running 225/35/19 Nankang NS-IIs. Dialed in the front coilovers - lowered them about another 3/4". Sitting perfect. Just gotta add a touch of camber to the rears and I should be perfect. Here's my phone teasers on my way out the door for work this morning. Better pics once it warms up Friday and I can wash the car.

Love it or hate it.

Epic as always logan. even the part of a florida car being frozen :)

PS you ever find those wheel studs?
Thanks bro. I think FL frost car pics are always awesome lol. And yes I did actually! Found em right where they weren't supposed to be. I'll PM you here or on SUF later today.

Chrome lip? Even if they are, those wheels are sexy.

Tires that don't fit on rims that don't fit? Pass Looks too much like the Cavaliers you see around here on 14" wires sticking out because they're not made for FWD offset.

lol, yeah. It's whatever. I'll get em powdercoated something else soon probably. This was just a cheap rattle can job to hold me over. Wanted something different so I figured I'd match the engine bay.

No worries bro. It's love it or hate it.

That's way too much stretch. Guess you're not going for performance anymore huh?
I am. I'll be installing my GT3071 here in a few weeks. Shooting for ~400 to the wheels. I still have the O.Z's. They'll go on the car for track days.

But to those that ever said 19x9.5 low offset wheels would NEVER work...thanks for the motivation!

IDK what the camber is at right now. I was planning on about -3.5 in the rear and -2 up front. Haven't gotten an alignment done yet but it's pretty close to that as it's sitting. A touch more in the rear should get me there. AutoCAD helped me figure it all out lol.

Love it. There's always going to be someone who doesn't like what you're rolling, weather it's sunk +55 wheels or poked +25 wheels. And your stretch is nothing compared to some of the extreme stuff out there.

I always wanted to see if someone could pull off that low of an offset on the 6!

Nice! I love it when people say you can't tuck that much wheel under there and someone actually does it. How is clearance? I'm guess you're rolled so any rubbing? I plan on going 18x8.5 +20 offset

Kudos to you sir!

Those are the sexiest wheels i have seen beside mine! :D
You and your baller ass HREs lol. Thanks bro

He is rolled flat, no pull (least last we talked) and small amount of camber
Correct. Rolled flat at all 4 corners, mild pull in the rear only. Estimating camber at about -2 up front & -3.5 in the rear. Looks mean, fits perfect with the stretched. Front lowered considerably, rears maxed out. Almost no rubbing at all when riding alone or with one passenger up front. After everything was all said and done, it looks like the fronts actually have a tiny bit more space to fill than the rears, surprisingly.

I finished up the last bit of camber adjustment today. And got her washed. About to go snap some night time parking lot pics. And some daytime pics tomorrow and Thursday. Will post them later in another 'non-teaser' thread. Or re-title this one.
