Is this the "hellaflush" or "slammed" term people talk about?

I believe it's the 'hideous' term people talk about.

Definitely a bit of JDM influence going on with spokes that are slightly convex and what appears to be a mild stretch of the tires, where the current ponycar styling preferences tend to be concave and tires that are a little squeezed if anything. I like this part of the wheel/tire package just fine.

What I don't care at all for is seeing the tops of the tires and the wheels buried up under the fenders and the rear tires sticking out past the quarters. The fronts remind me of 1950's Nash cars (Google it), and both ends look like they'll be constantly rubbing if you drive anywhere near as hard as I'm apt to. Yeah, I know that the "Pro-touring" movement borrows your front treatment. Don't like it there either.

Comment withheld with respect to 22" wheels.

Otherwise it seems mostly subtle as show cars go, though the grille and front bumper area is a wee bit too busy for my taste.
