Haven't seen any Tsx's with the "flush" look.

I might be getting old but back in my day we used to call it "slamming" our cars... todays gen calls it flush. Has anyone seen or have pictures of " flush " 2nd gen tsx's?

Nice man! I was looking to go 10.5 on my girls TL. Im assuming you had to roll the fenders? What other modifications did you have to do to make those fit? Any full shots

slamming is lowering your car to the floor

flush is getting the rims to line up with the fender. Plenty of flush guys on the forum here.

^^those rims would look better w/o the color match

Thanks for the clarification...guess i really am new to this. I'm sure there's plenty of "flush" 1st gen tsx's but I'm looking for 2nd gens.

Yep there HUGE I was amazed they fit also didn't have to roll fenders and no rubbing. Wish i took more pictures that day. The rims aren't mine "yet" saving up for them there mad $$$$. My friend has a shop and they were another customers he let me try them on so we could see if the offset would fit. tires were verry thin thats y I want to get 35's really wish I had the cash I would have bought them that day.

BG: No rolling, no suspension mods yet( what you can't see is the heavy set guy sitting in the back seat to achive the drop no offence to any one out there) Im going to get the Megan Racing EZ Steet Coilovers soon,(since ground control hasn't made anything yet and I like the color) the rims fit like a glove.


tsxronald: specs are 20x10.5 (rear) 20X9 (front) 3 piece forged mad $$$$$$ thats all I know.

LOL, i beg to differ, what are you on tein SS? then i wouldn't even considered that slammed, that's only lowered.

civichbdx would have to be the most aggressive set up i've seen thus far. if only his car was lowered and definitely in for some pictures of his fitment.

ex-rotary owner or of .com seems to be the lowest tsx i know. Supreme is maxed out in the rears on tein ss so if you're maxed out you'll be at his height as well.

now if only someone got more agressive wheels and actually dumped their car i'm in for pictures of that!

tein's aren't meant to "dump" or "slam" cars. if you really think 2.1" is a "dumped" drop then l-o-l.

megans are capable of dumping the tsx, not teins.

I'm not flush, cuz I'm bout to be HELLAflush in a few weeks, also getting wilwood BBK for the front.

Wheel & tires specs are SSR type F 19x8 +48 all around, tire size 235/35/19, getting 15mm F spacers and 20mm R spacers soon.
Slammed on Megan's EZ street coilovers, maxed out @ 3 inch drop in the front, 2 inch in the rear, going to max out the rear soon. Here is a picture of me rolling:
