    Really depends on the car and the size of the wheels. Some cars need tuck as they would look skyjacked otherwise, others need poke because they would look like the titanic otherwise.

    My usual formula is as low as the car can go with the correctly proportioned wheel. Whether that requires tuck or poke to work is the deciding factor.

    It really does depend on the car. For example, most everyone does tuck on MK5s and it's the "style" for them, but poke can be pulled off very well too, as can be seen with Tek's MK5. I also happen to really like forward rake so the look appeals to me to poke the rear a bit (that's what she said )

    Typical MK5 tuck


    Tek poking

    Again, it all depends on the car, the wheels, the style. I've probably broken and destroyed more of the underside of my car than anyone else on this forum, and I roll tucked day-in and day-out.
    yea it def does depend on the car.ideally i would be on bags and just flush enough to set the car down right on the rim.

    you def have more balls for driving as low as you were. especially across the country. haha

    Depends on the car.. I cant vote for both, so Im not going to vote. Stance doesnt come down to these two options

    The car HAS TO LOOK stylish and beautiful. No matter if its' wheels tuck or poke. Ideal stance depends on the type of flares and features of body styling. So, I have no answer.

    SW Crew disappointin' me.
    I'm the same way as you. I've done both. My MK4 GLI was poking and it's a great look on VW's. But with my TT, I've decided to go with a tuck. I think as long as it's done right, they both look fuckin amazing. Like you said, certain car would look RETARDED with poke, others look retarded with tuck. But if you can do it right, it will always look good, tucking or poking.

    For me it's very important how the wheels flow with the car's fenders.



    1. Fenders that flare outwards and have a "lip" that goes almost straight down. I like flush wheels with mild stretch the best (example: E36, E30)

    2. Fenders that flare smoothly outwards with no or very little lip. I like it when the wheel pokes a bit (not too much though!) and the stretch continues the flow of the fender. (example: Mk4s with pulled fenders etc.)

    3. Fenders that go straight down (example: modern Audis). Here, tuck is best, imo. Depending on the car, flush may also look very good.


    But all in all I'm more a fan of the flush or slightly poked look.
