WTF who changed the definition of the word 'flush'???
As far as I know
flush : Completely level or even with another surface
When did the definition of the word flush change?
Because I hear people on here calling this flush!
That is called sticking the Fack Out.
Hey, if thats your thing. N.P. Not mine, but it reminds me to much of this
Do what makes you feel good, but at least call a spade a spade, and a wheel that sticks out past your fender 'Sticking the Fack Out'

From just being around the scene for a bit, I've come to realize that there is a difference between being flush and being fitted.
Flush, wheel (not tire) is even with the fender. Your average Joe is generally leaning towards this kind of look. No one wants to be sunken in, everyone generally wants to be flush without any real kind of fender work, say a rolled fender or so, but you 2nd Gen owners are lucky you all don't have to deal with that like us 1st Gen owners. Such a look is generally achieved without stretching a tire, standard widths on wheels generally apply to this definition as well. (Example: 245/35/19 on a 19x9.5 wheel)
An example of flush, in my opinion. I am using Jeremy's (Black Betty)car as an example, for you 2nd Gen Coupe owners.
Now, fitted is a different story. Fitted basically sums it down to how low can I lower my car and still drive it, while running the lowest offset possible for my car and still making my wheel sit flush with the fender. In order to achieve that look, camber and stretched tires all come into play. It would seem that the general consensus with this look is still trying to maintain the wheel being flush with the fender and not tucking the wheel when you are lowered, whether you are on bags or rolling static. Some take this look to another extreme, while others (like myself) like a little bit of stretch and poke, but not too much. This is definitely not what your average Joe wants to do and what some people don't realize is that it does require a little bit of effort and research to achieve this look properly.
An example of fitted:
Honestly, don't know where I was going with that. I just felt like typing, hah!
