20-25mm spacers and he'll be set. Should look pretty good then. Now it kind of reminds me of a matchbox tuner car the wheels are tucked in there so much. Report back after the spacers!

They make the ADR M-Sport that would fit the Z and look just fine with some 15mm spacers (+30 or 33 offset; +30 is OEM for the Z, correct?).

However, your cousin definitely doesn't own those. Looks like he bought +45 or 48 offset M-Sports. Either way a 25 mm spacer would bring it back down to around a 20 to 23 offset which should look OK... he's definitely got to try something.

I got two tickets. I registered but my isnt going to be ready, incase you know of anyone or yourself who might be interested. I saw some pics that Kevin (white evo) threw of your car. That thing still looks sick. I just picked my new cam the other day still learning. Hopefully I can get as good as you are.

if you wanted to meetup and take some pix of cars sometime that might be cool..

whoa whoa whoa.... Lets calm down.. Im the owner of the car. Ive only had it for 4 months and have come this far. Sorry we cant all afford volks. as for the spacers, my car is too low and i already rub sometimes. Listen I see alot of crap rice on these forums and ive never said anything.
Thanks for the compliments, and I'll consider spacers!
