I would rather see a hellaflush car than a riced out car with a huge body kit that doesn't fit, huge wing, pointless decals, huge fart pipe and a douchebag kid driving it.
Not the point of the thread. The point of the thread was whether or not hellaflush can be done right, ie, keeping performance and safety.

True "hellaflush" will be less safe and have lower performance limits than properly fitted and setup wheel/tire/suspension setups. So the answer is no as explained already.

I personally think the VIP, hella flush, etc crap is really really retarded but at the same time I don't give a crap what others do with their cars as long as it doesn't affect me any. The bad part is, some of these hellaflush setups can affect your life because some of them ARE dangerous.

If it's a show car, have the wheels at 80 degree camber for all I care.
