Default Oh man

Oh man, that is the first black Roadster I have seen and it looks AWESOME.

The wheels work well with the car to. I like it.

Super Black...that's my baby! Great rims. I was going to go with the Silverstone w/ burnt orange but I took one look at the SB touring when that came in and I was sold. It does look mean. I love that car!

Stillen has a nice rear decklid spoiler for the Roadster. Does anyone plan to install this?

Default Ugly lines...

I was thinking about it and was waiting for someone to be the first to post some pix of one installed. What I don't like about the Stillen spoiler is the line it leaves around the edges in the back. I am sure a body shop could sand it smooth or build up the trunk lid around the line, but it probably wouldn't be cost-effective. I definitely want a spolier for the back, but am starting to lean towards the OEM coupe lip spoiler AGAIN.

One other option. If I see a picture of a roadster with a version of the NISMO type wing spolier WITHOUT the base and it looks good, that might be the way I go.

Any other roadster spoiler ideas out there besides what has already been posted recently?

I was thinking of a 1" drop but I hate to screw with the suspension.

Yep, I got the clear side markers but haven't installed them yet. I didn't realize I had to disassemble half the front end to get to them!

Beautiful car.... Do the tires rub at all with your setup.

No, not at all. There is plenty of room. I don't think there's a problem even with a 1" drop. A lot of folks have done that without rolling the fenders.

Thanks... Any idea what is the max. width and offset for the rear without rubbing. I heard it would fit a 10.5 in. in the back???

Default Excuse my ignorance,

but what does the +27 and +22 mean after your wheel size description?

Hope this isn't a double post, don't think last one went thru.

Those are the standard offsets for GT-C rims on the 350Z. Go to the forum threads on tire sizes for explanations on sizes, offsets, etc. It took me awhile to understand it all.
