Default PPW Now Lowered GF210's

Here are some pics of my Z lowered. I just put some Tanabe GF210's on it Monday last week and here are some pics lowered. I get my new 19" wheels in tomorrow so I'll post more with the upgraded wheels on the car. For now check it out. I snapped these the other day after I gave my toys a wash.







Hope you enjoyed my few pics, I will post more when the new wheels come in tomorrow.

Eric

I bought new wheels that are to be delivered tomorrow. They are all correct offset. As you can see these wheels are not the correct offset, so the new will fit nice and snug and flush. I can't wait to get them on the car.

19x8.5 (245/35)in front +20 offset
19x9.5 (275/35)in back +20 offset

Bash all you want, the dude I bought the car from was clueless. They are non-staggered and +48 offset all the way around, it looks fuken retarded and I hate driving my car the way it looks. Today will be another story, cant wait for the new wheels to come in. Once they are on i'll post more pics with the new wheels and proper offset.

Will look better once you get the correct offset. Looking clean though.

I dont believe the camber is in spec. I just installed my GF210's last Monday and I'm waiting for my new wheels to get put on before I take it and get it aligned. I didn't want to align it with these wheels on here since they are not the right size to begin with. I will scan copies of before and after camber settings to let you know if a camber kit will be needed or not.

They need spacers with those wheels yes, but my new wheels are correct offset and spacers are not required. The new wheels are +20 offset where the wheels shown above are +48 offset non staggered.

You could of fit larger widths with those rims..19x9 +28 and 19x10 +28. Also, do they even make +20 offset?

These are the only sizes they make for this specific wheel, I almost went with 20" but those are a little big for my taste.

Sizes Lip Depth
20x10 5"
20x8.5 2 6/7"
19x9.5 3 1/3"
19x8 2 7/9"
18x9.5 3 1/2"
18x8 2 7/9"

Offsets +20 to +40mm
