Can you please share Wheel specs and offsets?
Thanks...
Yes,
18x9.5 +22, 275/35 Federal RS-PROs sits flushed with the wheel arch and no stretch.
18x10.5 +12, 305/35 Toyo R888, pokes out a bit, I need to drop the ride height and add in camber. It siting pretty flat.
Took car out of storage for first drive since November. Was fine when put in storage but on drive home, passenger's window went down slowly then wouldn't go back up. Day later window goes up just fine but still goes down slowly. Afraid to lower it all the way down. Guess I'll be working on that.

1. Took out half-shafts and fixed the axle-clicking issue;
2. Replaced rotors/pads;
3. Replaced rear hub bearings (originals looked and felt great at 238k, but it seemed stupid not to do it when taken apart);
4. Converted lug nuts from mag to lightweight tuner style;
5. Replaced 275/35/19 with 295/30/19
Pulled out of the garage for a test drive, and to bed the pads. Didn't even get out of my driveway, and I could feel the ABS engaging. Now I have ABS/BRAKE/VDC/SLIP lights engaged (I always drive with VDC disengaged, so that light isn't new). Drives normally, no ABS engagement. I didn't disconnect the battery during this work, so I'm wondering if the CPU got confused with the different tire size, so I'll wipe the codes and see what happens.
This is the tire setup I'm running on a 2003 Track 350z with 238k miles. This ratio shouldn't have triggered ABS/SLIP, should it have?:
Update: all idiot lights went out on their own. In the meanwhile, I found out I'm going to have to slightly roll the rear lip a bit in order to avoid tire contact. Who's got a lip roller they want to loan me?
Last time I was here, my Zeddy was 100% boring stock. Here's a before and after collage
So far, I've being focusing mainly on the suspension. XXR wheels, Raceland coilovers, energy Suspension bushings, Z1 rear toe, camber, and trailing arms. Still have more parts im planning to install underneath especially Z1 front UCA, poly diff bushings, and just going with Z1 subframe collars.
Also have ISR test pipes, Z1 cat back exhaust, and mishimoto radiator, intake tubes, and racing thermostat.
As of this coming weekend, I've got a leaking pinion seal on the diff to replace 🥴

How was your experience receiving the spoiler? I've heard stories about the company that makes/ships them out can be a headache. Its somewhat nice because they do paint it for you as an option to match the nissan color code.
Actually they didn't paint it. I don't believe that was an option at The Z Store. I had it painted locally. No issues getting spoiler. Took about 6 weeks to deliver it. Ordered back in November.
Evo-R website does offer painting (a lot cheaper than my local shop) but I didn't go with them because I heard there were issues with them. I've never ordered anything from them so I can't say for sure.
Has anyone tried putting on te37v mark II on their car by any chance? I want the wheels, but they only have 0mm and +15 offset. I was thinking about 18x9.5 with +15, but I’m not too sure. I also have brembos and I’m not sure if it would clear with that setup. My fenders are rolled too.
