Nothing wrong with you car. Not rolling your fenders is still stupid. That is one of the fundamental steps to making a flush car. Have you driven it around and hit any big bumps yet? I ask because my springs are 9kg/mm and I STILL compress quite a bit with bumps.

I would love to see a maxima on Hellaflush or Stanceworks...
Btw Keem ur setup is sweet but ur gonna have to roll ur fenders to save ur sidewalls. the car looks great with that stance and u have made me reconsider my rim and tire setup. my only question is how does it turn? can u go full lock without rubbing or at least minor rubbing?

Stretching a tire doesn't bring the rim closer to the fender, it simply allows the use of an improperly sized wheel (width or offset).
Actually, there are correct and incorrect wheel and tire fitments for every vehicle; I'm not implying places like tire rack give definitive answers (overly conservative). For a given fender to suspension clearance with a target tire diameter, there is an optimal tire size. If using a wheel restricts tire size to less than the optimal solution, it is a marginal (incorrect) fitment. The trend towards to 'stretched' tires for clearance is the perfect example of force fitting improper wheel sizes.
Please note there is a difference between aggressive and hella flush fitment; aggressive uses all available space.
Also note the Maxima doesn't do many of the things you listed (auto-x, drag, show, time attack, cure cancer, etc...) better than the 'field', OMGBBQWTF Hater. It is a quick front drive (wrong wheel drive) family sedan, of which there are many.
Although, these guys will like it: http://fatlace.com/hellaflush/theflu...ellaflush.html
EDIT: added note that FWD=wrong wheel drive, yes, I am one of those people.

My opinion: Too much of a stretch for that size. If the OP wasn't a lazy *** he could have easily rolled the fenders and ran 245s, which is hardly a stretch at all. If you haven't noticed, I'm not a big fan of massive stretches. Stretch only as much as you need to. If you need to expose the barrel, then your wheels are too wide or you didn't do enough fender work.
not a big fan of the wheels but car looks nice, goodluck with the camber even though IMO i think camber is pointless along with this current ridiculous trend...

My favorite setup (in regards to flush) is still the 18x9.5 +35 with 245/40s. Car looked very aggressive, had a nice contact patch and rode surprisingly well.
