Post your stanced, hellaflush, slammed maxima here!!!!!

This is true. Rolled and pulled fenders are to achieve aggressive fitment by running wide wheels with stretched tires and usually neg camber.
Being flush just means your wheel isn't battle sinked in. Doesn't mean you need rolled or pulled fenders

It's only on springs and the tires are way to big. Once I get coils I'll put smaller tires on, maybe with a little stretch and throw on some spacers. Then it will be slammed, Hellaflush and stanced.

Max looks good by the way. I'm in for more pics. It looks like you have a huge dent on the rear quarter panel below the antenna. Or is that just some strange reflection?

Watch out for the stance experts. I can see your wheels aren't poking enough. They may disapprove of your lack of spacers.

You post pictures, expect criticism. good or bad.
Stance can be widely defined. Your car doesn't look to fit the bill. Thing is, you have really meaty tires, dropped on springs, wheel gap, and not really flush all around, nor a legit "tuck".
MaxCTR, love the wheels. get a kit on there

I'm not sure why everyone is assuming a finalized set up from the pics. Just like everyone else, I'm posting some progress pics.

Oh by all means I expect criticism. It's impossible to go anywhere on the internet without it. It took me almost a year to get wheels. Coils will come probably by the end of the year. Tires will be replaced by the end of the summer and then I should fit the bill 100%.

Compared to the stock 16's I had, it's stanced. Sure, it doesn't poke from the wheel well like mad, but that would also make it look goofy.

This whole "stanced" thing is so outrageously stupid, in my opinion. There's no definition of "stanced". Everyone keeps arguing back and forward about what the perfect fitment is or would be... Now there's experts? Lmao. Thats what I like about function. Its function, you're either faster or slower, therefore something you can measure. You can't measure "stance". Enough ranting, back to the awesome show.

It's really really simple.
I just think the argument stems from:
People posting a sunk wheel + wheel gap car when it's blatantly obvious that's not what the thread is about.
They get told to the truth.
They catch hurt feelings and try to hide it with excuses/arguing.

can't lie...i felt like i read a old head talking about how hip hop is dead

stance game is far from dead...it's just the people on here that aren't really into stance that don't know any better and think that it's as simple as wheels, coils and spacers. It can be that simple, but only if you know what you're doing. offset is everything.
rolling fenders isn't even everything, but i can say that if you haven't had to modify your fenders, you're not doing right. if you don't have stretched tires, you're not doing it right. if you're not as low as your wheel/tire setup allows you to be with coilovers on full stiff, you're not doing it right...stance is all about finding the limits and going just a little past it. it's all about minimal extremes.
even with tucked stance setups that aren't flush, it's still about the extremes.
I can't wait to finish my set up for the summer.

I have the opposite problem with my wheels. They have nice poke on the front and none in the back. A spacer will fix that after I get new tires.

The same can be said about a purpose built performance vehicle. If a car kills the competition on the road course, you might call it fast. But if that same car only runs a 15.8 in the 1/4 mile, is it now considered a slow car? Does that mean that you can't measure fast or slow anymore because it is or neither "both"?
Bottom line is that stance is a concept that is misunderstood. People looking at it from the outside think it's alot less than what it really is. Just like drifting is looked at, just like NASCAR is looked at, etc. But in reality it's just another genre of the car culture. If you don't understand it, that's fine. It's the same way that someone who is into heavy metal music, might not see the value of hip hop music. But now I'm just rambling on.
