The springs are Tanabe Gf210's but haven't decided to put them on or not. There's a member on here with the same springs with forgestars in similar offsets and liked how it sit. Could be lower but I'm trying to make my front bumper last. I'll throw up a few shots on that thread. I really need to get a decent camera.

I can always bump the sizes up next time around and find out what the limits are before I rub. Still undecided on lowering with the springs but GF210's are a really mild drop, I'd probably be fine without rubbing how she sits with them on.

This is me.
But as its been stated, we're discussing it on the wrong thread. My tires have a small amount of stretch and although they're within safe operating range, they certainly aren't fat. Lol

What would be the best tire size for stock 18" touring v2 rims? Both are 18s. I want to get a better acceleration (launch) and cornering grip but I don't want to go so wide that I have to change rims or suspension.

need to get some of fitment expertise.
Currently I'm running a 18x10 +20 wheel in the rear with a 265/35-18 tire
previously on RPF1s I ran 18x10.5 +15 with a 275/35-18 with no rubbing
I was suggested to do a inner roll, and use a 15mm spacer
Should I have my alignment redone, and dial out some of the rear camber, BEFORE I look at doing a roll/pull and moving to a spacer?

GZILLA is back!
Hey all.
I love my car and just cant let her go. I have had every config you can think of. I had a 345 on the rear but with boost the 345/30 was too tall.
They dont make a 345/25 in a 19 inch tire. I was going to go GTR 20 and do the 345s again, but decided to keep my original set up.
Note the tags....May 2016!
Shes alive and ready for the back roads. No boost yet but something over the next year im sure. Shortie headers, gutted cats, borla 2.5 true duel.
19x10 front 10 mil spacer 295/30/19s
19x12 rear 25 mil spacer 325/30/19s (had 370z 10 inch widen 2 inches)
I hope I qualify for the thread? LOL. I miss the forums. Facebook blows and I am not a member.
Enjoy the dirty pics. I will run out and take more soon.

you cant go this wide with Coil Overs. I run the 350z TEIN H tech springs and the Tokico Blue shocks. Zero complaints and the set up holds up on my occasional track day/auto-cross.
This is where you get the wheels widened: http://weldcraftwheels.com/

So. I'm in the middle of a somewhat extensive build, purchased 18 x 9.5 +15 all four corners wth Bilstein coil overs (roughly 1.5 to 2" drop) eibach sways, whiteline links , solid sub frame bushings , diff bushings Tomei LSD and some other funsies, my first question though is should I run a larger AR in the rear? I like the square setup but I can't decide if it's enough meat back there anybody ran this wheel/tire size combo? Pics coming of it if anyone's interested

Finding most tires are easier in 275

Depends on how close it is to rubbing. Looking at the differences, I dropped to 275/35-18 all around from 285/35-18. The difference of 0.1 inch was not worth the 3 pounds per tire difference. Always look up the full stats before changing

my 295/30/19 still allows for 10mil spacers on the 370z rear rim (which is on the front of my G). Width wise you are fine, its the offset and spacer that you need to pat attention to the most.

Last year at Zdayz I was running r888's 275/35/18 F and 305/35/18 R on Rpf1's 18x10.5+15 square.
The 305 was too wide with the r888's. Had massive rubbing issues even with rolled and pulled fenders. Had -2.2 camber in the front and -2.0 in the rear. The year before I had NT05's with the same front size and a 295/35/18 in the rear without issue. The r888's are way over sized it seems.
