What suspension modifications (if any) are required if I run a 9.5 x 19 (f) and 10.5 x 19 (r) set up, or can I simply lower the car as desired?

A few "experts" have suggested I will need some form of camber kit - is this correct?

Any advice would be appreciated!

 

depends

 

i'm not 100% sure about our Z33s but it is definitely a good idea to have the suspension ready for such a "wide" setup, i had to get rear toe rods, camber arms and such wheni went with 8.5 & 9.5 low offset rims on my s14. my suggestion is to put the wheels on and run it for a couple of days to let the suspension settles, then get the suspension checked out, if stock arms could handle the camber nd toe adjustments then you'll be fine, if not the you gotta shell out some more for the camber correction kits and toe control kits. also are you throwing on coilovers or springs/shock combo? if lowering it more than an inch you will almost definitely need to get the correction kits or camber arms. just my .02 hope it helps.

 

if you want to run within spec, camber/toe adjustment are require whenever you lower your car. I don't think it matters as much as the wheel size you're running. If your camber/toe are way off after lowering, you might need the camber arm and toe adjustment bolts (or other variations)

 

I have the TEIN S-tech's no fender rolling required and the camber is not bad, it is a very subtle drop. I am currently running the setup that you are mentioning

 

nd2spd, how does your car handle on 19s with the s-techs ? Specifically I mean steering response -- sharp, immediate and precise.... or sloppy and Jello-like ?

For instance, if you're going highway speeds & go left-right-left with the steering... is your car planted or sloppy ?
