you can check out the current tees at www.dorkidori.com (NOT TRYING TO SELL STUFF MODS!!! I PROMISE ILL BUY A VENDORS ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO SELL ON HERE!!!)


this is the line art i started for the shirt (picture was donated by a guy on zilvia)...im not sure if im gonna wind up using this artwork or not (i was messing around with halftoning on it)...i like to use car photos of people who post on the forums i sell shirts on...and i think i might just run a thread on here for car photos eventually (depending on how well the 350Z shirts sell)

lol...thats barely stretched...its a 225/45/R17 on a 17x9 wheel...ive seen guys runnin 205s on 17x9s (for 240 guys...its common to run 215/40/R17 on a 17x9 upfront...i plan on doing that when i get my work meisters as 225 is a bit harsh on rubbing sometimes)

Stretch is a must for having a 240.

If I didn't have a Z I would have some sort of s chassis.

Welcome to the forum, look forward to your new designs, I haven't seen many nice t-shirts with Z's on them. Oh and don't use that line art you posted, that lip in the front is ugly :P

stretch is actually a must have if you want your wheels to sit flush on your car....im not big on the SUPER flush look (like ultra mega mexi flush under wide fenders)...a little pull and little stretch is all yah

im actually giving thought to selling the 240 and buying a Z...biggest reasons are i want a car thats not gonna get stolen if i drive it around (my 240 lives in my garage...i daily a 87 nissan pickup) and a car that i can take on road trips out of town (the 240 is tuned to run on E85...and finding that out of state is a bit hard as its not being adopted in some places as well as others)...but its just a thought right now

im also kinda waiting for nissan to fricken OFFICIALLY announce the new S16 silvia thats being built on a modified FM chassis...there have been TONS of rumors leaking out in the last year and a half about nissan bringing the car back out in 2010 to battle toyota/subarus new entry level sports coupe

Sweet looking S13 man. Ive always wanted one of those... Probably would have bought one in the past, but everyone I went to look at was driven into the ground by some kid.

i spent years with my car slammed (my rear fenders use to sit literally about a 1/4 inch from the wheel lip)...we have HORRIBLE roads in vegas...and i got sick of putting dents in my catback and scraping the hell outta my exhaust flanges and transmission (theres still yellow paint from the speed bumps i use to scrape on embedded in the metal of my tranny)...where the car sits now is perfect for me...its low enough to where it looks nice...but high enough to where i dont scrape going over speed bumps and getting into drive ways

i think i just need to switch to 18" wheels to make it look a bit lower...i had sportmax 006 17x9/18x9.5s on there for a while when i had 4 lug...they were honestly the heaviest rims EVER...18x9.5s weighed in around 28lbs without the tire...the 17x9s were 24.5lbs...and the offsets were horrible (i had 15mm spacers all around just to make em look decent)...my hotwheels rims (current wheels) are 17x9 all around at +0 and weigh 21lbs each without tires
