Default Ings LX Half Kit w/ 06 Stock Rims

hey guys,
I was wondering if I could get your opinon on the look of a full ings lx haf kit on stock 06 350z rims? I really like the kit, but won't be able to buy rims for a few months. As for the kit, I am getting it at a killer deal, but only til the end of this month.

Do you think it'll look strange or it'll be fine?

I was going to say that too. The INGS website shows a car with a similar look. It was pretty slammed and had volk progessiv 6-spokes on it....clean looking wheel with no lip, similar to the OEM 2006 wheels. With some spacers you should be looking ok.

You're either going to be L-O-W, or too high. Those kits only look good slammed.
Do you have coilovers?

Actually since my driveway is so steep and the car still has about a 1 1/2 more years of bumper to bumper, I was going to keep it at stock height. As for spacers, i would get them, but I don't want the dealer voiding my warranty because I installed new studs.

So it'll look ugly at stock height? If so, am I just better off going with a full v1 veilside lip kit

I have the lip and the rear (need sides) and i plan to put'em on with my stockies. Think it'll look hot dropped or not (would prefer it dropped though)....didn't think about spacers until i read the above. Same with me i don't want to void my warrenty by adding aftermarket parts so i'll hold off with the coilovers and kit installation.

Personally, yes. It'll look like a 4x4 without it being lowered. But it's your car so your preference is what really counts. Have a search, you should see lots of pics. I'm sure you've looked already. I fond that the kit ONLY looks good on the cars that are lowered.

I have bought this kit myself, and I'm very nervous about installing it, cause I know I want it low, I'm just not sure I can afford to buy a INGS lip every month. lol.

Just buy the kit and put it on it's very subtle. Also you could just buy now and wait until can get rims.
