All ready on the list Can't wait...
Only thing is, in all total honesty, people say it's chavy etc, it's NO different to euro styled cars IMO

Hoping to go to this too, tho will probably be disappointed at the standard of cars compared to the hella/illest scene in the US

yep, but generally wide wheels, stretched tyres and lowering can be done easily and for not much money

To pull off a 'proper' euro stance isnt cheap

Yeah agreed, that's where hellaflush is a bit different i suppose as it totally depends on your wheel being as flush to the arch as possible.
My tyres aren't stretched at all but then i'm not really hellaflush i suppose.. I have a 4-5mm gap between tyre and wheel.
Guys in the US are running 18x11's with 285 tyres. so no stretch and there considered hellaflush

sorry to go off on a massive tangent but in corsasport tradition whats the difference between what we know as euro stance and proper euro stance?

Offset is everything hah, optimal flushness is having the arch between the tyre and rim

These are all in the hellaflush thread on s2kiUS but all different styles in terms of tyre stretch etc.

Same as euro really. Just a style that's been around for years except now it's got a name

But then that would come under Euro would it not? I lose track tbh. A car either looks good or it doesn't, give a shit if it's style has a name

Exactly what I think when I see this stuff, the cars look great and everything but why go spoil it by giving it a shitey name. All it is is nice cars on nice alloys with a nice drop. Nothing more.
Obviously you're now going to get every man and his goldfish claiming their car is 'hellaflush' as long as the tyre sits level with the arch, the same way that anyone with a set of bbs's called themselves Euro.

That would look better without the massive camber on the rear and the massive lack of it on the front.

That golf is a friends of mine. It's on air so wheels go like that when it's all droped down.
